I must admit,I am tempted to buy it back but a bit to far to travel.

Ray, if you were, I'm sure there are people around who would be willing to help out

I don't think anyone really knows who carried out the modifications , but I remember seeing it for the first time around 2006/7 when it appeared on Ebay in quite a poor state. mark, the previous owner of c5alive , got hold of it . At the time it was red and white in colour and still had the word " ubmobile" in white letters on the side ..when you looked closely you could see where the letter P was missing , so it was originally called the Pubmobile.

Ray got hold of it from Mark and then restored and improved it...it has changed hands again since then.

Pubmobile!

Already at £200 with 7 days remaining.

I'd be tempted but i have a feeling the price is going to go quite high .... and this time of year i'd probably get shot if i spent too much on another C5

I think the ubmobile is probably the only c5 that ray has any regrets over selling $:-\$

..it is a survivor though and I'm sure we will See it again at an event in the future
