"It's kind of like buying a high maintenance Jaguar because you love the
beauty of the beast but not really possessing any serious mechanics skills.
First thing you know the rear diff is making noise or the Lucas electricals
has gone haywire and you hope someone else has already had this problem and
can tell you exactly which screw to turn to make it better....and in some
cases that can be done but not a lot is learned in the process.  Old Jags
are mechanics cars...."

But unlike those of the Jaguar, the switches and wiring harness of the R-390 family are fairly reliable.

Say, you know why the British drink warm beer?  Because Lucas make refrigerators too!
