Great cars, as close to driving a Go Kart on the road as you'll ever get.
One thing to watch for is that the rear subframe that locates the suspension is very rust prone, as are the inner front wings. Later cars are much better in this respect, but it's something to bear in mind.
The A series engine is pushing 60 years old now but should be relatively easy to maintain, provided you remember that the gears are in the sump.
