Thats currently less than the amount I need to spend to finish mine. Think I might put in a cheeky bid!! Could just about squeeze in in the garage
next to mine and the mrs will never know
When she does find out just say its her's to match mine!!!

yes, if that's the 'starter kit' as advertised ....HERE then it
cerainly is very good value - especially with all donor parts cleaned + ready.
Tempting - mainly because of the price,......but.....I'd rather do something Cobra - ish next time?
It looks like he's already got one se7en?

I can't believe how thin the roll over bar bracing is - not sure it would do much TBH! Still, a bargain for someone if the reserve is sensible.

How can an unfinished auction be a bargain?

Then the forum should auto size it or stop me using ones larger than 150 pixels. It doesn't even say when you change your avatar that you need
to limit it to 150 pixels, where have you got this number from?
Plenty of others have Avatars of a similar size to me and its not excessivly large unlike some of the pictures I've seen uploaded on here.

As I've been on here since 2006 then I guess I've been through the auto warning system twice and not been deleted. So I assume "Da
Management" don't have an issue with my picture.
And on that link it says auto resizing is coming soon then I don't think there's much need to panic about a few extra pixels.

Well, I think people actually mean something along the lines of:-
It's a bargain at that price "currently"
and
It "looks" a bargain, as in "as I am seeing it now
and
If the "reserve is sensible", i.e. if it doesn't go much past a sensible reserve...........
I "guessed" all of the above mainly because these exact words were "actually" used in the members comments ahead
of you and seemed to indicate their opinions (which I think the rules of this forum allow them to have) as to the price of the kit at the time of
their posting, making the fact that it's an ongoing auction largely irrelevant..........
Not really much point having a dig at them for it...
I know it's not the same as punching the fat kid in the school yard, but the general themseems to be a little bit like bullying, and I've
never liked bullying I'm afraid.
You don't have to be quite so petty all the time y'know...

Not sure as to the prices of the GBS zero kit myself, but yes, if it doesn't rise much that does seem like a bargain - Well spotted Woodster and
it's kind of you to alert the forum to such a current "bargain" when it's nothing to do with you.
The kind of post that good forums are made of, in my humble opinion...

Agree! This forum is still one of (if not the best for lack of stupidity and flaming in posts), but it does occasionally drive
off into the trees 
By the way, your avatar is way to bright, I think it should be in monochrome

Yes, yard-and-a-bit, and you should spend more time building, and less time posting and you might eventually finish your flippin' car!

Doesn't look quite the same bargain now - 3 hours to go, £1930..... Maybe loggyboy had a point, earlier?
