Maybe one day I will be brave and buy a munter to do up and fit all the upgrades. |
 We share the same enthusiasm Chris!
An excellent idea too  I picked my two up for 40 (Rosa) and 50 (Dougie) . One was from a bloke on the old Mamod forums, the other was on ebay in bits, painted in matt black

Keeping my eye out on a bargain. There have been a couple on ebay recently but they have been very beaten up and went for too much money.
