I was in for it up to £80 but I have more pressing parts needs so that was enough. However, come the autumn it will be one of my first projects for a forthcoming 3d printer. They get cheaper and better all the time !

At 3-30pm it was £88.00 and i never bid but i guess how many are there laying on a shelf in a cupboard , if there are they will be out now and on ebay.
Darren, Simon and myself makes about a 1/3 of the LD10 owners on here 2 are up for sale at this point in time so guess its not them that makes 5 of us, all i can say why has the value of the cars not gone up and what about the nuts to hold it on .

I bid on it up to £120 it got too rich then. I would buy a copy but not for £120. The genuine article is always worth more in my opinion.

Yes can agree the originals will make more money and i guess few are to be found but 2 must have taken it to that price, i have never seen one on ebay that i can recall so is a rare item.
Glad i have the one i have that and a bag for the foot pump not many of those either, now i have said that one will turn up on ebay but sure there are copies f those.
So with Minky that makes 6 of us so who was the buyer could be a owner from over the water will we ever learn who the new owner is ?.

I have one for my Barker, but it has been broken in the past and repaired by screwing two small aluminium plates on the back. I'm going to try and superglue it and see if I can fill the small screw holes.
A 3D printed one sounds like a good idea.
I do need one of the screws that hold it on however, I seem to have lost one of them.

Mine came with the car in three pieces and distorted. Careful use of a hot air gun, good quality two part epoxy glue and a can of Matt black spray paint and you can't tell it from new so it wasn't me bidding😳
