    I've been to see this in the flesh - it's beautiful!! Cracking paint job and the photos on castoff don't do it justice at all. It's been lettered and lined and looks a treat, called Rhubarb and Custard.
    I've been doing some sums and there's about 560 ft2 of accommodation. Comparable to an empty shell building of say a log cabin at around £40k or a brick building at around £60k you can see where the figures start to stack up.
    I know some of you will say, as you have I can get one for nothing but this carriage is positively charming and in awesome nick. I'm in love :tape: shut up I can't afford it :sad:

    Martin,

    It ain't me - I'm a realist when it comes to coach values!

    It can't be me I'd have taken a video and showcased it properly - like I did when I sold the wife!!

    That only leaves one other I feel who's been very quiet....
