Looking good - recognise the characters

Looks like your OB has the same problems as mine (couldn't put the front wheels down to passenger overloading). I ended up using a hot glue gun!

Yes Unfortunately..ebay bargin..bought it with no box. Seller wraped it in bubble rap ..except the ends...arived with the front wheels smashed.. Seller refunded me 90% of the bargin price (£90) ..its scrap...it now sits on a foambord block..but at £10 I can live with it..the other 3 are mint.

I trust you have suitable chastised the screwdriver

 

[mike]
