    I'm 30 precisely :) I love lots of older cars, but the M1 has never done anything for me. Off the top of my head, these two are from a similar era and on a completely another level of desirability...

    Thanks for that, I'll google it - the temp gauge does sit bang in the middle though if that makes any difference?
