This is the reason as to why I have no monies for the next fortnight and today was payday.

Nice and tidy. Few little dinks and dents but nothing to worry too much about. Pretty damn clean as well. Very little bit of surface rust but nothing to worry about, boot is solid, battery tray is solid, arches are solid. Runs nicely. Only downside for the moment is a rear wheel bearing has gone. Going to get some more looks under the wings etc tomorrow. MOT til June next year, went through the last two MOTs with NO advisories which surprised me. Plenty or service history etc. Even the original bill of sale.

Proper chuffed with it, shame it is a Mark 2 but needs must. I am a Mark 1 man preferably. But this came up at a nice price and was too good to refuse.

Just need to sort out the bearing, tax it and insure, and away I go!

Happy days.

Nice find if it's all solid and rear arches etc are good, a few weeks of skintness will be worth it lol
