To those picking faul t with the advert posted by gazza it was originally £7000 but I was advised to reduce. It The price to £ 6000 not gazza fault it was on eBay and wasn't pulled down i by the time it was on the club site at £6000.
To pasifi DVLA Inspector
A new front bumper as been fitted and four new tyres as well as a new wind screen wiper kit With electric motor new bearings on front suspension items carried out for the DVLA before return!ng for pass certificate

Trust this explains to the members who took it open themselves to ensure the mix up with the price was advertised which wasn't necessary y at alll

IT S A PITY THEY HAVE NOTHING BETTER TO DO

I trust when they reach the ripe old age of 83 years young they won't make the same c,,,k ,,,psits a
good job that members. Who don't profess to know it all have members like Gazza and Neil to fall back on
