Following the success of my last thread about a car in the classfied has anyone on here already bought (or know anything about) the dark green Academy with cage in North Yorks?

Thought I'd check before I spend 50p a minute on a PH 'phonesafe' call to find out it sold last month.. :-)

ta.

Aha.. I knew you were joking because it's in mine. Well, as of yesterday it is, anyway - finally I bought a car.

I drove it back down the A1 last night and am itching to go out again but first I need to move the driver's Tillet as it won't slide forward enough for me. I'm also in two minds about the cage; the plan was to switch it for an FIA bar but it's growing on me. I need to decide though as I want a half hood for it.

After 24 hours with it I'm very happy - there's some diff whine between 40-60 which was worrying me but reading up seems pretty common. I had wanted something brighter, yellow (yours!) orange etc but having seen how filthy it got after the test drive I'm less concerned. Also toying with joining L7C (in spite of the discussion on here) so I can read up on a few things.

Hello 'thehoof',

What an obvious idea that I didn't think of. The distance to the wheel is spot on so if I can adjust the pedals that would do the job. I'll have a read to see what's possible then try that next weekend. Ideally I'd like the seat a fraction more upright but that's lower priority.

Thanks for the tip.
