Number 2?  Seems to have been about 4 for sale over 12 months. I nearly bought one till I found out it was not actually as described via a spy. Funnily enough it was in Essex.

Usually when I hear that senario the seller is in Oxfordshire. Ho Ho!! :D :D
I would have thought that anyone looking for a British Lloyd could not afford to be to picky though, how many of them can there be?

I'm collecting a moped from Stratford apon Avon tomorrow, I will let you know if Warickshire is a den of iniquity and joins the list alongside Essex, Worthing and Farringdon! ;)

Apparantly their are 14 Brit Lloyds left but I assume some are a little theoretical. I could not list them but have heard this from several sources including an owner.

Stratford, ooo eck! They are Bardsteads round there. Specialise on bald tyres and talk a lot in strange and obscure ways. Still better than going to Apron over Straponford.

Oh very good Alan!  You missed your vocation.
14 Lloyds! Wow that does suprise me, I would have guessed three or four.
