OR a group purchase by a number of enthusiasts living in reasonably close proximity (say 10 in a 10 mile radius (?)) might make it more cost-effective, given the limited use that that one person would presumably make of it.
You would only need one person with enough space to house it - the rest could pay him nominal 'rent' of a few beer tokens per year.
Told you I was a tight-wad! It comes of being a child of the fifties. Having seen my own mother agonise over spending the last half-crown in her purse at the end of the week on food for the table or coal for the fire, I'd be up for something like that - how about it chaps!
