Yeah she's an absolute beaut. She's got a few miles on her. (About 480000) but runs a dream. The only thing is, at low revs you can hear a ticking noise. The noise doesn't speed up with the revs or the clock. Any ideas??

No idea honestly, I am not a great mechanic, but most folks on here will say ticking usually goes hand and hand with valves. Those kind of miles I'd look into a valve adjustment, but even check chain slack as that could be the issue too. Lastly might just need a great oil change
