I am a new member to the forum and to the concept of owning a classic MV.
I am toying with the idea of buying a Mk1 Ferret.
One of my concerns is that of fuel. I assume that the Ferret engine was designed to run on 4* fuel. I know that some garages still provide 4* but they are few and far between.
What are the options. Can I use unleaded? Is aviation 100LL fuel an option?
If I go ahead and buy are there any things I should particularly look out for when looking over the vehicle. I am not much of a mechanic so keep it simple please.
