Yup, that's what so many Austin Ambassador owners said in order to justify their purchase of that truly outstanding piece of British automotive excellence...

Hey guys, don't knock the Austin Ambassador!
Back in the 70s my dad had two of them.
One to drive and........... One for parts!

Brilliant find with the buses, the Polzeath one was a local Cornish company.. Personally I would love it.

Just how to get it home...
