Asked the seller if he had ever had it running, was an emphatic no, on closer inspection, in my opinion, it hasn't been fired up since before World War Two .
Asked him what he would take for it at the death------the way you do--------he said £600, Come on sunshine, it was priced at £200 two days ago------------ah, but that was then !,,,,, -----I sadly shook my head and walked away--------they are amongst us!
