theres a lot more work that has been done to keep the vehicle maintained
i will include a detailed list for the buyer
or mail me with any questions
.
this vehicle starts everytime
and has been so much fun
and very reliable over the 12 years i have owned it
only needs work done for upgrades
maintenence and when something wears out
.
main reason for selling ...
due to divorcing my cheating ex husband a few years ago,
i got the 110 as part of the break up
.
and as much as i dearly love the 110
i am a single parent with 3 children
and i can't keep up with the mechanics labour charges
and the cost of parts etc
i am not able to work on the vehicle in the way my ex husband used to
therefore it is too expensive for me to keep on the road
.
my daughters and i will be sad to see it go
but hoping the person who buys it will continue to tend and care for it as we have ~x~
.
any questions please do not hesitate to ask
you are most welcome to come and view the vehicle
.
i am starting the bidding at £3,500
which is just £1000 more than what i originally paid for it
.
i need to buy good new bicycles for my 3 daughters and i with the sale proceeds
as you can see there has been thousands spent on this vehicle
and although it needs some bodywork done
the heart and soul of the vehicle is strong and healthy
best wishes and happy bidding
