That's gonna have Pug marks all over it I reckon, though 500 sheets is a bit steep especially for one without a glovebox - where can a man keep his cassettes?
He's a member of this club too I think

It's problem though surely is that it's limited to just that but still with all the associated annual costs of MOT, tax and insurance etc? So you'd have to be 'at it' fairly regularly for it to make sense. 8)

Definitely wouldn't want to be driving that back from the pub (or even generally) though, with the magnet of 'construction & use' infringements that Plod will undoubtedly go for not covered by the MOT. :wink:

Pah, all you need is a decent tow car, a trailer and off you go. The benefits are if you crashed it you could weigh it in afterwards and then sell the engine to a 205er!
