You old boys are all disillusioned, Candy Antares is obviously the fastest 😁😁😁

Welcome ! Antares red were certainly fastest out of the showroom .. many yellow ones were the last to be sold well into 1979. Owned both colours (and red and varnish blue too) so unbiased  ;) ;) Funnily enough though the Yellow ones are very popular today...much more so that they were when they were new.

You are right there Ash. I had a the Candy Antares red in the 80's and a red one before that. I have a varnish blue one now and to be honest the candy red Antares went the fastest but the yellow one LOOKS the fastest even when standing still 😁.
