No cruisers or Chinese stuff though.

I'm sure there's more depressing ways of spending two grand but right now I can't think of them.

When this was new the London Graphics Centre in Longacre Covent Garden had about a dozen of them. Screens and sign written top boxes, barely a day went by without seeing at least one of them crashed around the West End, usually within 200 yards of the shop. Incidentally the manager had the first Sierra Ghia I ever saw.

My brother was a Honda dealer years ago, and used to buy for practically nothing, CD175's and CB200's, and then flogged them through Loot and E&M. He bought a couple of Benleys, and got stuck with them for months. Even I didn't want one cheap as a commuter.

Not a patch on the earlier CD175 that just could not be blown up.
