The Cars Today
Of the 241 cars made, it is estimated that 225 survive. Many of the cars are still in active use, with a few in active competition.
Some are competing in classic trials, others compete in VSCC races with success.
The cars are commonly called "Hurgs" by their owners, and have an owners organisation in the HRG Association.
