Hi guys, That's the beast.

The guy claimed it was working and promised a test run, we got up there but no pod lights/drive. He seemed genuine and knocked £20 off the price.

Back at Alan's we tried fiddling about to no avail so we're posting both pods and control box's to Martin.

Exciting stuff. Can't wait to hit the road. nice to be on the forum.

p.s. There's an air horn fitted, HOOOOOONK HOOOOOOOOONK  :o

Welcome to the world of c5 ownership you will have great fun, and with that air horn Voodoo will have someone to play with too.
