outdoor_ian Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 Most of the money is going to be in the tires by the sounds of things. Do you have any pics of it? Does it have an overdrive or free wheeling hubs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

outdoor_ian Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 The overdrive is worth money on or off the vehicle, I know of someone that purchased an S111 for £300 with an overdrive in it whipped the overdrive out and sold it for just over £400. In all fairness the money sounds like its in the tires and now the overdrive, free wheeling hubs are a bonus to you but dont really do much for the seller. If you go in low and can always come up a bit. I think I'd be pitching things around the £350-£400 knowing you could sell on the overdrive unit if the worst things happened and you woulnt be out of pocket. Things are only worth what someone is prepaired to pay for them at the end of the day. Hope that helps you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retroanaconda Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 Good stuff. I got one too recently for £50. Has two sets of free-wheeling hubs and an overdrive! Got to be £400-500 worth of bits there alone if they all work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
