Keep at it Col, you dont know what might come of it at auction, could end at alot lower than he's expecting and then maybe he'll consider a deal

PS

Okay guys, following on from some advise from thr freestyle boys on Flexi regarding the seat.

I checked it out when i got home this evening and they were correct and the seat had never been fitted properly. The straps that were supposed to support the back support were just hanging loose under the rails as opposed to going tight over them.
Since i had never removed my seat since owning my buggy i had never noticed that it was incorrect and just thought that was how it was supposed to be. Funny really as ive been riding like that the whole time lol.

Ive since stripped the buggy and reassembled it correctly and the seat is now totally different, i have never realised how little back support i had previously as to how it is now. Feels like a different buggy... Slim i think yours was incorrect too.

Ive also swapped out the piston QR for a Wichard...

So i hope youre all happy now
