Depends on the bits mate... What condition and has it got any optional extras as you might find yourself with lots of parts you cant sell... Where you based?

. The whole is more than the sum of its parts. .
Though Aristotle may well have been mistaken in this.

If it's the one in your website, unless you've smashed it, sell it whole.

If it as tidy as it looks in the pics with history to verify the mileage, I have got £250 for it :)

I agree, looks a nice tidy example, should have a bit of interest in that.

Any other problems with it?

just a bit fed up of trying to sell it...

if you are 100% honest - and you just put people off.

Bad points:

rear valance below the toeing eye has gone - it's been touched up to stop it getting any worse.
around the aerial is a little bit crispy

diff wines a bit
clutch biting point is a bit high
fan only works on no4
center exhaust section has been patched

compared to some of the stuff i've been to see it's a million times better!

I'll be breaking a touring soon, most of the parts will be left in the shed until I need them.

Ah yes, I bought one last year and sold it to a mate who wanted a runner for 12mths, I've snatched it back and by the looks of it, it will be fragged.

It's silver, not sure which one though :?

If my memory serves me right, the interior is not the best.

Pics to follow soon if I decide to break it or not.
