Maybe Rob wants you to be the "passenger" and didn't want to alarm you just yet?

Got one! TLR250 with a chair - needs a heap of work: tyres, cables, plastics, paint, bushes, bearings, exhaust system, brake pads, re-lacing and rims, bars, grips, chair paneling, but is more or less complete on the major components and will probably run. Pictures soon.

What do you reckon Dan - can we make it a 320?

Don't worry though - Kathy is going to occupy the chair. And I have absolutely no experience with sidecars. So between the two of us we will be lucky to navigate the loop let alone any sections.

I hope to have a resto finished for the first club day in February (six weeks), which is completely unrealistic considering I don't have a shed or even any tools. But what the hell, the impossible only takes longer!

If someone really bought it, then it has to be the right price - and no - it wasn't me.
