This one was a bit of a bargain , it's around £1000 to get one converted to tow it behind a motorhome

View attachment 83284

42,000 miles
It's been stood for a while so I gave it an Italian tune up on the M6 , 80mph was quite entertaining , a slight gust of wind and they don't like it much

I couldn't say no for £600

Hired one of them a few years back and drove around Monaco, Mougins, Nice in it for a few days.
It was fun to be in and drive.
Really, only £600?
Steal.

I know , I'd though about getting one because having to make the MH road ready every time you want to go somewhere is going to be a pita but any car fitted with the brackets is usually 3k plus with double the miles

It needs a couple of things doing but nothing that stops you driving it , door seal leaks in heavy rain so it smells a bit musty inside , when it warms up I'll take the carpets out and clean them with the carpet cleaner
AC doesn't work and the back tyres are low but still legal

One old fart is still moaning about not getting it even though he's closed the thread

He made me laugh when he said his wife managed to get a washing machine in it because they wanted a delivery charge , I'm surprised the front wheels were on the ground :D

I don't think Chris Packham is in any danger of losing his job

Just took my daughter back to uni , driving in there was a bird sat on the path next to a busy road , coming back it was still there so I pulled over to see if it was injured

A fledgling blackbird , It let me get right up to it then just as I was about to pick it up it flew off , right into a car , **** me

Luckily it was a low speed blow so I think it was ok

Probably thinking , what a **** , I was fine as I was
