They were next to us at Stafford. Their prices looked rather good

Just got a real bargain this morning I picked up a 62 plate direct bikes 50cc scooter totally unused with only 5 miles on the clock for £150 :)

They're cheap and cheerful granted at £600 brand new including delivery but with only 5 miles on clock unmarked and with all accessories for 150 you could say I'm chuffed :)

A new near side headlight, two headlight power connectors and new carpet for the old girl.
Next week it is new silver screens.

That's weird, I fitted new carpet last weekend and left a new near side headlight and power connectors in the van that I will be fitting tomorrow.

This week I bought a Fiamma safe door lock from Johns Cross, a variety of Scotch cable connectors, a mass of spare fuses and 10 1.2amp dashboard lamps.

Next week it's another £100 for a new spare tyre.

Vic.

Can I ask who did your upholstery ? And a rough idea of price im thinking of having mine done as the cab seats are faded so bad they're almost white ...

Got the keys ( last Thursday) to the house we bought in Brittany.
:france:
Just need to decorate throughout, fence the garden in so the dogs don't escape and chase the horses next door, connect to mains drains, update electrics, change the front gates, replace windows, strip and paint shutters, paint the exterior, sort out the oil boiler or if beyond repair, fit electric radiators and wood burning stove, remove damaged glass and steel canopy over front door..............
Should keep us busy for a few days.........

Jees, £975 in case it breaks and can't be repaired. I don't know whether to wish your old one breaks or not :blush:

Yes but it's a EH model too, mine is gas only. My current one has the luxury of bluetooth remote control and when the designer has fixed a firmware issue it can be controlled by sms and timers set. So I'm not replacing it as the remote wont operate the electric version.

Fitted a electric towel rail - hate wet smelly towels. Also good for drying wet clothes at a push. Only uses 250 watts and fits nicely on the bulkhead behind the drivers seat
