Being too young to know what the queen looked like in her younger days (or 
bring to mind any good pictures), plus the fact that the queen bears a 
startling resemblance to my great aunt (who is closer to the Queen Mum's age) 
makes this a none too enticing thought to me.

But to each his own! <VBG>

I do agree that would have been a great car to have had at 16 though! 
Wouldn't mind having one now either.
