    Oh, FFS indeed! I thought initially it might be a real one, not a
    Bonnie-lite.

    Top tip - when you have no Internet access and you say to the SO "I'll
    bid up to xxx amount on this ebay item", make sure you tell her that
    you're already the highest bidder...

    That's not a Thruxton Bonnie. It's a facsimile of a sham of a likeness
    of a substandard copy of a knock-off of one.
