Its a Quest 80, British built, not a bad motor by all accounts but maybe too radical for British buyers. Loads of info on the net.

Remember this one of Whortons in Shenston, as we used to have a local drop, a couple of times a week, just up the road from there place, I would often pop out & do it myself. Never knew the why’s & wherefore of it though.
