hi, selling my c5. i overhauled it last febuary, everything still in good working order. scratched in the usual places (front nose, wheel caps) a few deep scratches. still uses original battery, but you'd probably want to get a new one. Selling because i don't use it much because i live in a hilly area also my closest mcdonalds drive thru won't serve me. Just ask any questions, pictures upon request also. Here is what i have done to it:

Chassis de rusted, sanded and painted black.

Rear chassis "hoop" sandedand repainted black

New decals on the wheel trims

Replacement inner tubes (all three wheels)

New schwable tires on all wheels (old tyres included)

Front wheel bearings re-greased

Front fork assembly re-greased

Still has original wiring (2 keys and c5 alive keyrings included)

has hi vis mast (slightly bent) and original tool kit (with all tools including pedal puller)

You could always hang on to it until the Brooklands event and sell it there...that way you get to take it around the track again and get another summers use out of it

Might have to bring it on the Crawley run, though I'm a bit worried about how long the original battery will last.

Well that was a blast

did about 8-9 miles. Would be able to post a nice map but my iPhone is away for repairs so I couldn't use it.

For £275 that you are asking for it, I would keep it as you will regret it later on...............................................

Lance has a point mate, you could be selling that a bit too cheap
