I loved the fact that they had such a well balanced combination of grip, power, brakes and revs. Each drive was easy to rag it equally and not exceed (totally) the road you were on. The engine was a little underpowered by todays standards but the way it rev'd and the noise it made was everything. I had several runs in a friends 1.5 cloverleaf (105bhp?) and always enjoyed it. My car at the time was the Dolomight. Might start, might stop, might have indicators and brake lights that worked. It was great in a straight line but the brakes were made of feta and the handling was like two different cars at the front and back!
