    A CD200 Benly, "restored[1] to near factory standards".....

    So what explains the nasty paint, the painted rather than chromed
    mudguards (paint laid on top of dead chrome, I'll bet), the
    non-standard "universal" silencers, the wonky side panel badge....

    And he's asking 600 quid starting money!

    (Incientally, I see that "award winning" Honda 400 Four didn't attract
    any bids and has been re-listed......)

    [1] Well, it reads "resorted"[2]
    [2] As in "last resort", probably, because he can't flog it anywhere
    else.

    Am I imagining it, or is there a kink in the back mudguard?
    Fair play, he's spent "alot" of time on it.
