£1600 for a rusted out heap of shit.
I got given a better one in 1990, and I drove it straight to LC Hughes breakers where I got £30.

Let me tell you, I was alive in the "Swinging" 60s. I don't recall an instance where we drank coffee IN A FUCKING BUS.
If things ever return to "normal" even what passes for "normal" in this fucked up century I pledge to continue my complete embargo on drinking tea, coffee or anything served out of a bus, horsebox, Citroen H, thruppeny bit Morris, J van, arsehole Italian scooter abomination or old ambulance.
Proper Ice cream vans will be exempted but only if correctly presented.

They're near a major carrot growing and processing firm, Albert Bartlett who also appeared in the best potatoes for chips thread, if I remember correctly.
Yep, it's fucking boring but I thought I'd bring a bit of newpodism to here for those who are missing him.

Well it's a fucking good job you didn't visit when I was living on my Regent 5 else you'd have taken great offence when I put the kettle on.

I didn't take offence at Cliff and the Shadows either......Just latter-day hipsterfarians. And I bet you didn't try and flog your Regent V for £45k either.
