Not sure it's a classic but don't see many of them these days, Austin 1800.

They seem to have been popular with farmers based on where rusting examples turn up. We found one (actually a 'posher' Woleseley 18/85) in a barn on a site I worked on years ago.

We passed one which was on the A11 Norwich -bound last Sunday. It looked magnificent (and perfect condition) LHD - were they also sold in RHD?

I think some were made in Slough UK so could be some RHD ones.
