There are still some bargains.

£10 for a 420 carb can't be bad.

Cheap so far, as you say. FVP's aren't that common - that one seems to be all there. I do have a weakness for these little chaps as you know.

The C 102 seems to have some damage on the water pump housing at the clenchbolt base, and it doesn't have the bracket, which would have been one of those skeletal bronze ones

want to talk pricing?? Check this out....

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/140688229608 ... 1423.l2649

Yep, that's AU$345 overvalued Aussie dollars - about US$320, or about GBP$220.

Now tell us you paid too much for anyhting in the UK...ever..!!!

Phew. And gotta love the 'very rare' tag. Might be now, but wasn't once.... :)

But..nice condition and nice motor..

Not a problem with the price, on this one.
I cannot understand some people, OK I'm not the best when it comes to spelling and being dyslexic doesn't help.
My posts can be a bit blunt, but with the help of a spell check, not always helpful and with the wife giggling over my shoulder, clever sod, I get away with it most of the time.
But when you see what some people put, is does make you wonder, if they are on the same planet.
