    Sounds workable but still unnecessary extra work unless something is very rare that your buying.

    Not really that hard, if it's the only one you've found that you want to buy, had a similar situation with one of my bikes. Still had security showing against it even though the loan had been paid off, apparently it's common practice to put it on for 5 years and not cancel it, 'just in case'. In case of what I'm not sure of.

    But as above, seller gives permission to talk to the thieving finance pricks, they send through confirmation that there is nothing owing, and you keep it handy for when their system gets fucked up and they come to try and repossess it anyway.

    don't think that's really an issue these days with modern machining techniques and watercooling etc

    Very cunty. I've asked the obvious, not that I expect an answer. (re-registered? warranted?)

    Had one as my first 250 went like a scoulded cat that fucker.
    To argue with a man who has renounced the use and authority of reason, and whose philosophy consists in holding humanity in contempt, is like administering medicine to the dead.

    "Dreaming" doesn't begin to cover it

    16k for a shitty old series Landy - Yeah Right

    http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used...1170375369.htm

    Its not a Defender and while it may have a holden 186 motor it doesn't have the overdrive which it needs ( the holden donk revs lower than the original Landy 4 cyl )

    Good luck with that sale lads.
