I had one of these when I was little and after looking on eBay found one for a very good price, especially seeing it was intact apart from the aerial. Okay it's not a model kit per se but I did have to take it apart... Yep, it's in a bit of a state but I can sort that out with my bloody expensive paint stripper... I also found some original decals and thankfully they are very cheap. And all in primer. I'm keeping my eyes out for a sensibly priced SHADO vehicle as I had one of those too. Alex ps sorry Tim

Perhaps that's a question of finances? How much is a Kawasaki front and rear end these days? LC stuff isn't too expensive. Maybe sell the Kwak parts?

ps you know exactly what I'd do but that's just me lol

I assume you'll be adhering to the courier code by leaving the tyre on until it gets so bald you can see the canvas beneath it.

+1 for bumper paint. Tesco sells it for a couple of quid. Works amazingly well. Smells a bit but that fades after a few days.

I can see it now. Hoards of OAPs standing outside newsagents offering to purchase cigarettes for 40 year olds. Alcohol will always exist. You can always make some yourself.

How is this possible? Recently Tim sent me some tobacco he got in South Africa, cost maybe £7 for 50 grams. It's Dutch, so the tobacco comes from Virginia USA, sent to the Netherlands, then sent to SA. In Holland it's more expensive. Over here I smoke Drum. I know for a fact in Europe it's about £9 for 50 grams. Here it's about £30. To travel about 22 miles. Makes zero sense to me.
And on a smoking note our 'prime' minister (I have personal words to describe him) has decided we should ban tobacco. Let's see how that goes. Probably another nail in the Tory coffin.
Alex
ps I do love OZ wines Jon!

Ditto. It's a heavy lump but doable on your own. Is it all assembled? Lighter without certain parts attached.

I do like OZ and South African reds. My fave at the mo is Yellow Tail Jammy Red Roo. About £7 a pop. I am not prepared to pay more than double because someone who's life work seems to be shouting into a microphone and promoting violence has bought a vineyard. Is rap spelled with a silent 'c'?

I do like my wine, then I saw this... I see it's on sale. Probably as no bugger in their right mind would buy any. Even if it was free I'd have to think twice. Alex
