I don't think it'd fit in my garden =))

Although the new owner of the Waddington viewing area is after an aircraft :D
That would fit nicely on the grass in the middle of the car park :D

Does the offer price include P&P???

Or is it a case of bring your own spanners and roof bars?

It's mid May already !! If they are desperate to shift her........ a few 100 sqwids may be the case.

Anyone have any idea of what money they are hoping to get for her ?

John who runs the Waddington viewing area is interested in her, so fingers crossed she might one day be parked opposite XM607 \:D/
