I paid £750 for the hound, boy do I regret it (only because I should have added the money I've thrown at it in terms of respray, fork rebuild etc and bought one in decent nick with proper history)
I'm so unlucky that if there is such a thing as re-incarnation I'll come back as me!

Stop flirting you. :lol:

But on the bright side you will be able to fix it up to your liking. It could end up like another Kermet. If you bought one for more money you would still be spending on things like CCTs, fork springs etc etc.
