All secret squirrel business, I need to know.

No squirrels were harmed in the making of this documentary portraying seaborne mammals.

And all is revealed!!! He who needs to know knew more than most!! Love it!!!!

There's good and bad news..... I've found a 101 not further than 15km from home!!! A mate spotted it whilst pruning some trees in whoop whoop.. It even has SA rego and is registered!!! The good bits... I now know I can register one here in SA with no prob. It's for sale.... The bad bits. It's tatty and he wants silly money for it! ($20000!)

Look on the bright side. At least you know no one will buy it from under you at that price.

Is there any chance he will see any reason if he knows what they are really worth in that condition, or does he just think because it is old it is worth heaps, even in crappy condition??? If it is the latter, it will probably end up rotting at his place over the next 20 years...

Sadly not... He bought it from his father several years ago and was happy to tell me that it cost him $15000. He then went on to add that "because of sentimental value and the work Dad put into it" rah rah rah, that he wants to make a bit, so the $20000 was plucked out of somewhere..... It's missin bits too..... It's got a home made hard top on it which IMO would have to go... That leaves the lack of sides, hoops, canvas.... Not to mention the two piece front bumper with elec winch and roo bar tacked onto it!!! I'm thinking $10000 would still b pushing it!

Tell him he's dreamin'...

Also, tell him he got ripped if he payed 15k for it like that...

There's one out there somewhere with your name on it...
