Looks about right on price for time of year etc.

Theres an ex-silverstone S1 (cage, harnesses etc) on for £6.9k that would be a good toy!

Reckon it would make it the cheapest 160 in the country at that price if it's genuine though.....

if it is the cheapest one in the country... no doubt it'll sell very quickly though...

I`d rather go for one of the sub 11k S2`s that are on, better looking / build etc

Cough HONDA Cough - tis not the be all and end all me thinks!!!

Awesome price for that 160 - looks good to me as a buyer, but it is in Silver!

However at this rate it could be 5006 before i get a decent car again.

I'll just keep on buying old Rover bits off e-bay.... then slot in a diesel lump from a sherpa when they run out...

Diesel Power! (And weight..!)

Is there a decent sized 2 stroke bike engine about? Surely a bigger 2 stroke would give better PTW than any 4 stroke? Any thoughts?
