Yes, I believe the first design had a spare spoke, but it might have changed slightly on later models.
Edit: Spare Spoke is mentioned on page 23 in 1991 cat.

"The bike was made in Nottingham in the Raleigh Special Products Division in 1989. It has the distinctive spare spoke holders brazed onto the right hand chain stay (later Randonneurs were made of Reynolds 708 tubing and featured the spare spoke holders on the left hand chain stay)."

I thought it had 'braze-ons' that held 3 spokes on the ND chainstay. (centre one shorter so the rear wheel drive side would fit as I recall)

Three local to me:
Let's start with the cheap one - £40 start for a 531ST frame/fork flat bar Dawes. If SWMBO had any interest in bikes this'd be for her:
It sold for £56, which was a bit over the £54 I'd originally bid and decided against as I've no space. That for me is a bargain.
