Don't worry too much about the legroom issue. The seat can be easily modified to slide a little further back, and with more work it could be made to slide a lot further.
At least some of the earlier 100 cars (very similar cabin to the 200) had the option of huge front legroom. On my 1969 164, the driver's seat would slide right back until it touched the rear seat; I am 6' 5" and with the seat right back my feet couldn't even touch the pedals...

I'll be selling one of my 240s after the weekend. I've a choice of two and they're both in really good shape.

You're very local as well.. Only 25 minutes drive, I go to Winchester quite a bit so. Saw your post about the TW125's too, you need a BSA mate! I'll pop you a message and we'll forward this.. Hope they're saloons.

*EDIT* Won't let me send a message, 30 posts or something needed beforehand. Confused.. Please email me at thecornishes@tiscali.co.uk with any info/photos of the saloon you have. Cheers!

Tim
