 cars?  Availability of parts?  Swapability of parts from other sources, etc

I just asked this same question on the Britcars list!  I saw an ad for one 
for cheap, and wondered what it was.
The response is that it is a heavy, 4 seater.  Not particularly popular or 
valuable.  It looks pretty, but I would save up for a Europa!
