Aye. Auto trader also has the eBay listed ones too, and one or two others. Which ones did you post?????

It's always the way, when yer not looking there's many around, then when you are there's not many. Must say there are plenty autos out there, but I like using my left foot too much.

I do have a month or so to play with when looking, but I hope to be sorted by end of June I hope as there's a continental hols (few thou miles) looming in August, so want to make sure I've bought something I can trust before then.

Cheers

........See Parkers for specs and guides and owners reviews on this model.
