Default My Haynes for sale

I've recently took up microlight flying and at £120 an hour lessons I've decided the car has to go. I've put it on locostbuilders

http://www.locostbuilders.co.uk/view...php?tid=200601

Not sure what it's worth. £5.5k to get it on the road. I'd be happy if I could get £3k for it.

Will have to wait for the 48hr expiry as although I have been a member on there for 11+ years I hardly visit.

I had hosted most of the pics on Photobucket but have been ignoring all their Emails and now they're gone. I don't think I can upload to this site, can I?

Are you doing the flying at eshott or Carlisle ?

Nice looking car but you are selling it too cheap. Surely you can get more than that for it

Build cost.... seems to be spending more on tools than car bits at the moment! (they will be handy in the future though).
Car iva'd and passed 15/08/2014. Finished weight 572kg.

Have to agree with David here, start @ 5.5k ono. Room for discount for quick sale. Good Luck.

Eshott David. Seems a really good set up and I love the Ikarus C42s .Very stable to fly although I,m still struggling with smooth landings. That's not me in the Vid though

I don't know whether it's cheap or not. I'm just looking to get enough for it to pay for the rest of my flying lessons.

Dont sell it untill you are certain flying is what you really want,you might regret it.
Nice looking car.

Try putting a Warroir down at Eshott.

I have PPl (A) if you want a quick wizz.
