I got sucked into looking at the BSA Bushman replica... I’m in Ross on Thursday, nearby but one day too late so not to be!

Yes, 1700 engines exist and come in low compression (Sonett) and high compression flavour. A std. 1700HC engine gives a nice bit of extra bottom torque compared to a 1500. Search the forum, many threads on this topic.

The car at the auction sold for £3100 according to the website. I think that's a really good deal if the car is as good as it looks and sounds in the description.
The BSA went for £3200 - too much I think which is good as I would have been gutted to have missed it if it had been a bargain!
