At the moment these are what I really want. They arn't particularly special but quite realistic wants, without one I could have the other.

At the moment I have an '11 Enduro Evo and in the next few months I will (probably) have a lower spec 1 series.

Orangeboy I fully agree. That would be a great combo wouldn't it. Fingers crossed for a lottery win.

Those horses don't appear to have massive wangers.

Disappointing.

@countzero - I assume you are on about the radio. That is the Kenwood 990S, all £6500 of it. Beautiful thing.

I'd quite have liked one of these to turn up about an hour ago. Looks like it might be at least another hour yet before it does...

Happily I am in the Qantas Club. Sadly, if I do ever reach the other end, I have to drive, so no free beers for me 🙁

No, I wasn't looking, but now it's there on a plate... (albeit a plate in mid Wales), it would be rude not to have a punt!

Thank you 😀

That's my Kilauea in the OP. It probably isn't a good idea to tell you how much it cost to restore!

One for the woodburnerists, saw it, desired it, bought it.
12 tons of splitting force gruntiness.

Or possibly fits the "object of desire (but no practical use)" bill better:

£170! Probably for the best eh? [url= http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/141076730420 ]Mine[/url] cost me at least that in bits before I even started to think about restoration - now hopefully enjoying a new life in Germany.

Meh, possibly a bargain, possibly not. Crappy pics didn't help. After reading Robdob's RB link though to get that into the state it was in to make me drool; I started to question costs.

I'll stick with the RC200 for retro-needs right now.

Now if someone showed me an explosif pro with Suntour groupset, then all logic would go out of the window. 😉

Hmmm, let me think.....

A Lightning
A V600 Le Mans
A Blower Bentley
A '63 S2 DHC, probably MPW coachwork
A PROPER quattro, homologation special
Alfa Nero
Maltese Falcon
A J Class. Velsheda, I think
Heron Bay
And a nice pint of Summer Lightning

Most of it is time and effort to be honest, not cash. I lavished a lot on mine because I know I will never sell it. I have a lot of unnecessary expense that others could miss out. NOS thumbshifters/chainset and pauls levers aren't cheap (£170 for those 3 bits)! Total cost was around £850 but I didn't have wheels (£150).

Hand polishing the rear mech took 4 hours!

one with a vr6 engine would be very tasty
thinking about trading in my 3 year old work van to fund it,would be slightly crazy as it wouldnt be very practical for work

Hmm TAFKASTR - a different one of those might be an object of desire, but it just looks silly with those wheels, tyres and suspension.
