Hi all,
I have recently joined the LC "club" by buying an 250lc from an old boy in Sweden for 500 quid.
It is all there and original but I plan to restore it, although I haven't yet decided whether to stay original or upgrade bits like brakes and suspension.
Links to threads of newbie restoration success would be appreciated!
Cheers!

It's right isnt it? Exactly what I was thinking of Jon, hence the Cat question. Still have a load of comics in the loft, best one was when they couldn't score any drugs and started to look like normal people. Or even when the cat shat in his headphones.

I have done the NOVA thing with HMRC. Once I have an MOT I'll get it registered.
