Yes, I am without a TG500  and if I had the dosh to afford one it wouldnt even be on the shopping list. Sorry but they do nothing for me. An Itom Competitione? Now your talking!

Ifind there probably *the* nicest microcar if its restored as if it just came out of the dealers...



And yes, Mopeds are popular with a lot of us, probably because most of us had them as first vehicules!

One thing I have always wanted to do, is do like my dad did... Get a kr200 project, preferably a tiger nose one, and then turn it into a TG500 replica...

The hardest bit would be the engine. They may be bad quality, but for me the engine is the msot important bit, Trabby engines are great, but dont have the same whislte, and just doesnt look the same...

£300! Cor that is far to much.

Yep its a bit weird to have such expensive things on a site which is really aimed at stuff that probably has not huge values at all. Trouble is us middle of the road types high-jack it with tales of ordinary daft cars instead of the real weirdo stuff found in the pages of the RUMcar magazine. You can see why mopeds etc are popular.

Yep, way too much!

My Puch Maxi was 25£ I think, and the yamaha QT50 was free...

Just a reminder. I am still accepting free vehicules. Offer will end soon! If you have one of those peel thingies, I will happily take it away ;)
