Back in 1998 I could have bought one of these for £150. It was whilst I were visiting an ex colleague who got a job in security, and pointed one out to me joking that it could be used as a dorm for when I visited my parents when on leave. Whish I bought the lot now. Never mind, lets hope the C5 ends up at those prices one day. Im depressed now. ???

I used to ride on that nearly every saturday! 26 grand??? what the hell are they going to do with it!

thinking about it, there were only 2 carriages (one per track, either side) so it was likely this one you could have bought.

Shame it wont run anymore.

I recon it would make a cool mini arcade for your machines  ;) go on bid, im sure the missus wont notice the bank account drop.  ::)  a few days to go yet, some expensive shed.

26k is a lot of money  :o

The money looks like its for two charities, so don't feel bad because if it wasn't it would possibly not be worth as much.
