    I'd go a W57/58, as long as you don't treat it too badly (no big clutch dumps, keep it serviced) you shouldn't have many problems.
    The above opinion is just that - my opinion. It is not shared by any business that I am currently or have previously been involved with, nor any of their employee's.
