It is ! I sold it in December for £7,500. He's fitted a new hood & pump etc. which is quite a chunk of money - which is why I never got around to itMito Man wrote: Mon Sep 30, 2024 1:57 pm And recommended just under it - is this your old one @Sundayjumper ?

"Have the windscreen, wiring etc. 90% there ready to be bolted together"
At first I read this as "90% ready" and assumed the zero exists only as a typo.
I now realise that he only has 90% of the parts that would needed to complete it.....
Do not want.
