818 on e-bay!!!!!

[flectron]

olskoolrotor and i talked about this on the phone today:

even though i live close enough to rotorstock to crawl home on my hands and knees, naked and only be slightly embarrased, it would be decent to get an old-skool rotorstock campsite going to meet and greet the fellow enthusiasts and get drunk to the point of incontinence.
bob, i\'m afraid your attendance is manditory - anyone else going overnight interested?


oh, and back to topic... (and an embarassingly non-rotary question)
the seller of the 818 didn\'t know what kind of fuel it took. it was obviously leaded as stock, but is there a way for me to tell if it was ever converted?
i\'ve been running it on unleaded \'til today due to the scarcety of LRP at my girlfriend\'s bit, but it flows freely in cheltenham and only after twenty quid of the leaded goodness was already pumped i realised it could conceivably have been converted at some point..
if it had, would leaded fuel be bad?

gord:D

no cat = OK to run on leaded fuel

When the fuel blockades were on I filled up my 323 with LRP ... that p1ssed loads of people off as there wasn\'t a queue and there was loads of it

Flectron, the 818 looks magic! I am so jealous but yet at the same time very happy it has gone  to a nut like yourself! A big thanks to Richard for noticing it had come up for sale again.
  Just looking at diary and I think that i have a quiite important seling fair to go to in Perth around the same time as rotorstock. So for now it looks like I wont be able ot make it. Also just finished a huge meeting with our works accountnant and seems we will be definately egtting a tax bill this year so unfortunantly all work on cars has come to a stop until things lighten up. Sio rotary moggy is a current no go.
 But this doesnt mean I cant continue to live out my dreams through others:D :rollin
  Once again, top lookin car mate.

thanks mike  
and good point - thanks rich - i would have probably missed it without the \'heads-up\'  from the eagle-eyed welshman :p

sorry to hear about the tax man - hope he goes gently on you and lubes up well first..
and bummer if you can\'t make rotorstock. maybe another show this year? would be nice to put a face to the name.

gord:D

 No worries - as travellinbob said I\'m just glad that its gone to somone who will appreciate it:D

And besides I see it as another potential customer :bandit  :rollin:rollin

Seriously tho\' I look forward to seeing them both in the flesh at Rotorstock

Rich;)
