Eldest's current BF is the son of scooterist mates of ours.... This afternoon the little sod was out on his dad's Rally, and some old bloke approached him and told him he had one like that....matter of fact, he lived just down the road locally, it he wanted it out of his shed! Chris popped round for a look, and found a tatty but complete ET3, been there a few years, non runner etc...just want it gone really. The old geezer wanted £50 for it. Chris pushed it home....one bit of fresh petrol later its running, everything working....and he's just ridden round here on it! Frame's slightly bent, needs straightening, but rides alright.. 50 bloody quid.....   Jealous? Me?      |

Jammy little fucker.
BTW Guy, I've left you a message in the staff section on SBW. Did try calling and texting but I'm guessing you're not on the number I have anymore.

Brilliant, if he's going to have a go on the lottery this week could he let me know what numbers he's chosen ;D
Wonders if Dad paid the £50

i suggest everyone on here registers with their local freecycle group on t'internet then puts in an ad for "wanted: any old scooter" and lets see what turns up. Guarantee someone will get something worthwhile, you can thank me later

Jammy little fucker indeed. the little shits already got a 135 v90, and limitless use of dad's Rally 200 with his numberplate on it....I could well do with that, for Katie, and as a commuter hack!! Cheers JUan, got message and texts, and stil on same number as you already know by now!! |

Last time I picked up a decent smallie for that sort of money was a Primmy for £40. That was in 1991 though....  oh..and a ratty rusty v100 for £30 around 99.. I was gutted when the little sod told us what he'd paid for it!! |
