Many happy memories of the portafold, my parents bought one back in 1963. They were being sold of cheap by the local stockist £100 each.
Had many happy times towing it behind a VW beetle but I would be a bit sceptical about towing it with 800cc (as mentioned on ebay).
A wave of nostalgia caused me to buy one again about 15 yrs ago but it seemed cold and spartan inside after experiencing an insulated modern (at that time) caravan, so I sold it to a friend.
The friend found the same problems, never used it and as far as I know still has it tucked away somewhere.
