i said "do you still have 20vt?"
he says "yes"
i say "i'll have it and pay now" job done!

patch you must have done same to me as i saw that yellow one on pistonheads by the time i got in touch it was gone..i wanted that for my engine!

as for mine ..engine is running and we are waiting for the exhaust guy to come back from holiday to build the system on the car..not done anything else with the green car yet as i still hope to find a nice chassis then we will assembl all suspension and brakes and other mods and swap motor over

I actually haggled a bit before I bought mine. He was a very nice chap, he said there was loads of interest between me contacting him and finalising the deal. Funny how some cars fly out the door (figure of speech) while others linger!

Do a deal for the 6 speed without the plus wheels? Lucky bugger

Don't go on ebay or the forum for ages, spot the coupe add and sold on it, go straight to the forum and surprise surprise, talked about by the same usual suspects and bought by one of the usual suspects, KTM seems to have all the luck... That's the second sub 1k plus he's had in the last few months...

What's up with everyone today, we'll have a case of 'stamping feet' any moment I'm sure!

My BIL (who lives in Edinburgh) got wind of it locally yesterday.

Yes patch, I am grumpy as I missed out on it. Add to that my back is flaring up nicely, and I'm on track Saturday. I'm just feeling sorry for myself. Ignore me, most do when I'm having a senior moment

Ktm phones once, having heard of it for seconds. I had to sleep on that last night. Grrr.

Anyway, rant over and happy Dan is returning to the building, before Marco gets the gimp ball out on me, again

I know Dan, it's only banter mate! I tend to sign things off as 'oh well, not my fate' - it just makes it easy to handle personally!

Keep those eye's peeled! I saw one at an auction once, a black LE, I couldn't buy it as funds did not allow, boy! I was gutted, went for £1150.00!!

PS - Hope the back gets better soon!

......anyway, at least you are in the 'special' club .... The 'Banana Bunch'

I'll console myself, safe in the knowledge that broom yellow is the new Vinci. And on that note, nice car brother

Will, you're due some coop luck, are you still persevering with your collection?!

Went to see the quack today, he said the worst word (after terminal) in their vocabulary, i.e recurring. Deep joy

Phil/Dan,
we all (bar 1) missed it, but let us be eternally thankful for what we have.... COUPES!! Don't like the red anyway . If I ever see this Plus at a meet I will buy the owner a beer !

Hey, I wasn't complaining!!!!

Aww Dan, if it's any consolation, I'll let you look at my metallic red plus any time you want

Hope the back gets better soon too, and see you soon for the VIS ride

James

You two guys have done well; just need to spray my Moon VT6 in Lambo orange to make you both drool. Need to win the lottery first though !

well done ktm, don't be breaking it now

Dan,
My collection is at three... Silver one I'm hoping I can offload to someone who'll keep her going, but economically I'm better to break her sadly along with the inky...
Sprinty is VERY quick and shoud be about 350 when fleamapped... Just doesn't idle that well an has a habit of stalling due to overfuelling...
Still got the fto too!
Think I should commission KTM to find me a plus with his strike rate...

i would certainly sell the plus if i find /or swap it for, a nice chasis for my engine ,as that is what i am trying to achieve....apparently it has a scrape on the door but unless its something special i am not too fussed as it was not something i had my eye on so if someone really wants it we can discuss when i have collected it..

marco if you really like the colour.. the 6 speed is the same colour it only needs an le kit to look same and it only has 99k and as mentioned before it passed mot with no advisories so has full test and 6 months tax..its exceptionally clean and a lot less than a plus of same age and condition if you are interested pm me

patch..do you want to do a trade of some kind?

I would def be interested as mine is dead!And colour is lovely...everyone 's jealous. Should keep the plus..sell the 6 speed.Have huge powered plus model

whats up with yours

Coolant hose of death...cooked engine...compression low on two cylinders now..Still starts and drives damaged nether less.Gutted.

Looking forward to the details of the new engine mate..nearly ready?

yes its been fired up and started on the button no trouble at all ..apparently noisy though as it was just turbo and no exhaust! it will be sat for a couple weeks before exhaust then mapping and if i don't find a chasis then the green one will get all the mods.....whats your chasis like? bodywork etc

No thanks, would have mentioned it myself if I were interested. I'm very content with the Flying Banana.

What!!!!!
Broom is a nice colour, it suits the coop well, but "the new Vinci" Hmmm not sure about that

ktm , have you finally got the coop you always wanted?

Welcome to the Plus club then..he he he

Let get your project completed as quite interested to see the results.. and now you have a corker of a coop to boost!!

not sure untill i see it ..i hadn't planned on buying another untill i was aware it was cheap! i might take one look and think this is the one..if not the search will go on! i will eventually find one i am happy with i am sure

what a car!

whats wrong with the plus rob, just seen its back on ebay again.

Give him a couple of hrs to get home and he can explain, just got on the train now back to Liverpool.
