I have considered that, those I have seen have intergalactic mileage! I'll keep my eyes open, missed a few already, didn't have the cash available, doh!
I wasn't going to bother, just run the 180, but I don't want to be adding 350+ miles a week on it, it's not far off 50k now. So a shed is more economical and wouldn't matter on adding miles. Really want to stay in the MGR fold.

Who cares about economy... ? I've put over 500+ miles on mine in less than a week.

Around the £500 mark will suffice. Seen plenty of good ones, but was too late! A buyers market!

Economy......... ..........if I didn't have three daughters, a large mortgage I would be running something bigger! £10 a day, everyday hits the bank balance a bit I can't really justify that expense tbh. Plus it takes the shine off the 180 if driven all the time.
