Well, three actually.
Geoff Stone is selling his Suzuki X-90 on E-Bay. This is a ready to go car.

or Item Number 120435422233 if you prefer. The car is in Derbyshire.

John White is selling his Golf powered buggy, another pretty much ready to go car.

He's joined the Class 4 club. The car is in Oxfordshire.

And finally Chris Poel is selling his buggy on E-Bay. Chris is better known as a whizz on 2 wheels, and wanted to try something different but has never quite got round to finishing this one.

or Item Number 160342312959
The car has lots of the legal requirement stuff done; Fire Extinguisher, Number Mounts, Bash Plate etc, but still needs a little work to bring it up to standard: Exhaust and Spare Wheel Mount, but would suit some one who has more time than money. The car is in Warwickshire just off the M42

Bovey Downs Trial in August Practical Classics (available 15 July)

From Anne Whellock - I've been enjoying the postings with regard to Fifth Gear on the Ilkley Trial on and mostly off a Ural sidecar and I'm anticipating another press disaster, but I might be wrong, when the August issue of Practical Classics hits the streets from July 15th with the report by the two journalist crews who entered a Hillman Super Minx and a Triumph Dolomite of their day out on the Windwhistle Motor Club Bovey Down Trial in April.

Looking for a hydraulic handbrake?

Look no further:-
