The decline was very rapid from the mid seventies.

In 1986 the total number of Seagull motors exported to New Zealand and Australia was 240
The following year it was 225.

By 1991 there wouldn't be any sitting in chandlers' showrooms.
I guess that proves my point, that rapid decline certainly ties in with my experience of how I saw people's buying habits change in the mid 70's
