Hi all just picked up number 3, C5. This one I got of ebay (very good price)and its got lots of extras never fitted. It includes both mirrors including plates, front & rear indicators, 65aHr battery, tool kit, horn & mudguards.

POD not working but also given a spare and the motor does drives so we will see. Might sell number 2 as got a few interested friends that are converting to having a C5.

regards
Lance (don't tell the wife)

Hi all, C5 Stripped down and now refurbed the frame with all new bearings, re-greased and ready for the body shell. Also sorted the motor out as it was a bit grindy... I wounder why!!!!!

Also replace the wall bracket in the garage to house the 3 of them.

Love that racking...looks good having them all stacked up like that - keeps them safe and damage free

The restoration seems to be coming along nicely as well

Really like the racking, and coming along well, looks really good

Hi Dave, Any time mate, also have been trying to look at doing a northern run but we are a bit hillier than down south

and its hard finding a suitable location, some have mentioned Southport / Blackpool due to long promenades
