without Donald Healey's consent or approval

The comment 'without Donald Healey's consent or approval' is based on several authoritative works, most notably one called "More Healeys". I'll post some references when I can. Andrewa 04:45, 25 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Mark III and 404

The mk3 looks a lot like the Peugeot 404. Same designer or something? // Liftarn
