dockertrigger 2 Posted July 9, 2015 How good is your sweet talking Pete?. You may already know of this one but I've just spotted it on Flickr, it's a 1 owner from new 1600 XL Auto, I doubt it's for sale but you know, especially as it sounds like the owner is elderly. It will be in the Basingstoke area though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChristinaGXL 23 Posted July 9, 2015 I saw that on flickr too, an amazing survivor, probably one of the earliest around. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Basingstoke is too far for hunting normally not many 'J' s around ey Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
