so after some back and forward convo with google translate i paypalled the guy £21 and its on its way apparently, fingers crossed it really is as new condition, will post pics when it arrives

anyone got any experience with these?

what kind of panel wipe is it that you guys use?

yep only have unleaded petrol but it works nicely, dont wanna black it up too much till i get some aspen on the go

had to tighten up the bolt where the adjustor knob thing plugs in as was a small leak but it was lpretty loose and stopped as soon as it was tight. (like in this video)

made a brew on it and started after first prime, they are built to last imo
