Me too. Here in Norway, while we are in Nothern/Western Europe, the
cars are so expensive that unless totally wrecked, they usually don't
end up in the junkyards before they approach 20 years of age..

Finding a type 44 in a junkyard is very hard, the ones that you can
find is either totalled in a crash so bad that almost not a single
item survived, or already slaughtered by someone else. In addition,
most of them are the base model with 4-cylinder 90 hp engine and
4-speed manual..
