yep and i got it of amadeal on ebay too. mine was the slightly higher spec one though, with metal gears in the headstock (rather than standard plastic) and it also has quick release tail stock, tail stock chuck, tail stock live and fixed centres, and quick change over tool post. think the whole lot come to £550.
i built my roadster using it. its a pretty good little lathe actually it did all my bosses for the wishbones etc. all i will say is that its slower at making parts as you cant make big cuts like you can on a big lathe, but other than that it does the job.
being honest though I haven't used it since i finished the roadster, i could probably be persuaded to sell it on if someone made me an offer I couldn't refuse.
