 Mind you, he was a heavy smoker and the car did smell quite badly .Smooth, well sprung and a nice manual gearbox! Also, a pal at college in the late eighties brought his mum's Maxi in one day and I remember commenting on how he looked like he was stirring the soup when attempting to select a gear   .
