Surely all the d2 on original chassis must all be nearly fecked by now?
Still see the odd one about, but rarely, d1 none existent and d3 getting thin on the ground around here.

Found over the Cambrian's below 20c and humid, it was a lot gruntier than mid 20s and in Herefordshire.

Was motoring a bit from Wales to Leominster.

Above 10c & thats our summer.

Loads of all of the above here but all parked up as projects in driveways. I got offered a D3 last week for 250 sovs
needs a sill welded & the starter live rewired. Got new nobby tyres on it so he just wants the sale price of the tyres.

that’s exactly my thoughts unless it’s been welded but it’s just chasing the worm really. I don’t see any d2’s around here at all now, 2023 I saw two but I checked the reg plates last year as remembered them and they’ve been scrapped.. ironically MOT fails on corrosion!

A girl I shared a house with in Devon, who ended up with first in mechanical engineering explained to me how humid conditions lead to a better burn. I had a car with an SU carb at the time which always ran better in such conditions as you mention. Something to do with fuel molecules gathering around water molecules.

I am still surprised at the number of D1 s I see over here. D2s are much rarer. But then it is warm and dry a lot of the time and any car over 20 years old doesn't have to pass their MOT!
