Mine was an early one, It had belonged to my uncle, who wanted one with o/drive, but they took so long he settled for the standard one. From my experience with it, the o/drive was needed on fast roads. I inherited it with 1200 miles on the clock. I tend to keep cars for a long time & it saw me through from impressing my wife to be to fitting child seats (not easy, some drilling required).
Mimosa yellow. Mine was French blue. I think my brother's was Cinnabar Red with overdrive, a late model with waxstat SU carburettors. It was slow! His was written off when an Escort van pulled out in front of him.
