What’s the one bike you really want but cant find, etc

Id quite like another Dawes Ranger or Countryman. I've had both in the past and let them go. Had the Ranger set up with 700c Alesa touring wheels and drop bars, traded it in for a Marin something with disk brakes, big mistake, it had zero panache compared to the Ranger
 
As a regular to the Finchley Recycling centre N Lond, its not unusual to see what would have been £700-900 bikes bitd and expensive golf club sets just dumped. I guess its house clearance after people have passed on and they don't want the hassle during probate.
 
I'd love a Brodie like this one from the 87/88 catalogue.

Has anyone got/ever seen one with a U-brake mounted like this?
