Still gives me a chubby 
Personally, I would love to justify a build like the Mercian and like this above @oldave
Kind of feel if you are going to have one in the stable, then go for it and do it proper. A real vintage machine. Something with character just ooozing what it was meant for. I'm incapable to say what price I would pay for a beauty like those - I kind of hold out thinking I will find something locally at the tip or charity shop and just deal with it. Knowing my luck it would be green again instead of these gorgeous reds.
On the MTB I'm a bit more clued up, I've jumped don't regret it, but the blessed thing is in the loft now for 7 years in hibernation

Any chance you could post a picture of that? Suggest a neutral space, like the Bikewrenchers Inn

You could post them all there, everyone will get a kick out of that. You've have/had some lovely bikes.
Finding photos and posting takes up valuable riding and spannering time!
