It certainly dies. But the picture below shows why ihaven't bought one. I'm not exactly a habitual cleaner of bikes and I imagine the engine paint on this would look like lambs wool after one winter!

Just sold it for them and got them £29500. That coupled with the grand cash it came with gives them a healthy house deposit.

I think we're very different people.
I have no desire to own pretty much anything you put up on this thread. I'd actively go out of my way to NOT!

It says it's a 3.2l diesel, I'd be cheesed off paying £600 a year tax for that.

Bloody right an all, especially when I'm paying £20 a year on a car that owes me nowt
I'm pretty much done with cars, have been for a while, it only gets used for commuting, I did enter for the last Ford Puma they had, bloody glad I didn't win it, £160 a year for a poxy 1 litre with an 18650 bolted on the side.

The wife's Ovlov is £20 tax, but it's 120bhp and takes 11.5 seconds to get to 60.
My car is 306bhp and takes just under 6 seconds to get to 60, well worth the extra £240 tax.

But the roads are absolutely perfect. No problems with ice and water pressure damage.
Every ride is like going round Donington or Cadwell.
