Aged well as a design haven't they... never even noticed them enough to have an opinion when they were around and I was a nipper. I really quite like it now.

You could be right. Who knows what the price of scrap will be in 15 years?

A good one could be worth something. That is a shed.

I guess the best place to keep it would be a kennel - After all, that's normally where you stick a dog to keep it dry

yeah yeah, the ebay link most was only (well, mainly) as illustration. Tidy ones are available for little money (and no, the ebay one was not tidy. Shiney, but not tidy)

The point was meant to be that that model cavalier both looks far nicer than I remember (and will have nostalgia for a large number of people) and is as cheap as it will ever get.


Edit: Changed my mind. Ugh.
