Which Seven ?

[Malcolm Parker]

That's a difficult one to answer.   An RP is probably the better of the two in some ways.  It is more traditional looking and is lighter than the Ruby but has the benefit of the 4 speed gearbox and 5.25 rear axle.   However, a good Mk 2 Ruby would be quite practical for everyday use.  They are a comfortable and refined little car.  The problem is that they are quite heavy and hill climbing is a rather steady process.
