I managed to find myself a doka yesterday advertised in the local paper. 900 notes and pretty straight too. Got straight on the phone and was over to see it 20 minutes after that and the bugger had just sold it.  Its had a deposit paid but if the new owner doesn't come with the full cash in the next few days its mine. Fingers crossed. -------------

Don't think so mate. It was sat on a farm for the last two years or so after the owner died and only went back on the road at the back end of last year. (I used to own it, and imported it from Germany in 2000). Had a new 2.1 fitted while I had it, only done 12,000 kms since  Think it was converted by the German I bought it off, cos it's the earliest water cooled I've ever seen? ------------- Too many projects.....
