You could look through the old adverts on cars for sale on here to get an idea of prices or try pistonheads,autotrader,Ebay etc.
They really are cars with character and soul,a car that you want to drive even if you don't have anywhere you need to go.
I'm sure the garage will be more than willing to give you a test drive.
For an insurance quote try Peter Best.They can be very cheap if you have it as a second car on one of their Classic Car Policies especially if it's garaged overnight and limited mileage.
Even if it's your everyday car they can be very reasonable.
Don't stretch your finances too far when buying the car as you might not have enough left to enjoy driving it;fuel consumption is usually around 18 -22 mpg,maybe 25+mpg on a run.
Enjoy your search and let us know how you get on
