its a shame they refurbished it as cable driven version, but i guess it was too costly to run  Undecided

Do you break V6's as often as TheBoy? Then you need tunnie's towing services, recovery costs are just the humiliation of being towed by 2/3's of an engine

i would have thought there was a bidder below the 25k who would have been willing to cough up seeing that half the proceeds were for charity.

the end of the day... it aint worth a light.

lets face it its a piece of junk,the airport also knows it  hence the poor picture of just one side ,no interior shots etc  so no effort has been made by them at all. also its going  to cost a few thousand to move with cranes and transport etc.
as for the idea of a garden feature what a load of tosh.
its a eyesore and they just want rid without any hassel,but fair play to them to donating to charity.
