Went and visited them last year and bought a few pieces - freight was so outrageous it was worth flying over instead! /s

One and the same. I've seen him buy items for next to nothing also, only to reappear soon after for hundreds. He buys a lot of stuff from Germany and other LHD markets, which is why he often has incorrect parts for Australian cars. Buyers often find out too late, especially when he photographs those items upsidedown to give the impression they're correct.

I never thought about Gumtree being in the UK.
I imagined it being an Aussie thing.
What a dumbarse. :)

only $50K.
So say $1,000 each, what do you say fella's?
we can all be directors of a company.
Probably a better investment than putting it into super.

It must be the week for steering wheels... picked up a nice original for the Cortina on Saturday, $80. Old fella was a bit out there, asks if I want to see his Lotus. Sure I said, we go into the garage and the first thing I notice is the bonnet ornament, a .22 rifle... He winks at me and says 'just in case anyone gets any funny ideas' I promptly swallowed the lump in my throat and got out of there, lol.
Cheers Drew.
