I wouldn't mind one of the old Saab 92's - 2 cylinder 2-stroke engines, 
3-speed gearbox and a freewheel assembly to stop the engine exploding during 
overrun. I like quirky tech, so long as it's simple to work with...

(Or get something early 70s - by chance one of my Triumphs ended in '512K' 
which always seemed nice and computery ;)
