Good luck to him...compared to an Argos bso special it's a very fair price for a bit of English cycling heritage....

Describing it as heritage is stretching it a bit. Something that was crap when new remains crap with the passing of time.

By that measure bubonic plague, Jack the Ripper and Jimmy Savile count as heritage.

An Argos BSO would be equally dire, but at least comes with a years warranty.

Oh, that old amiga!/ ST thing

Which was betterer

Well, at the time, both were better than any amstrad or sinclair with the computery kids owning at least a c64, amiga and an st, or it was so at my school. I usually inherited the out of date stuff anyway until the St arrived as a present in 88.

Twas a little tongue firmly in cheek ...
Bit like Allegro's being part of the UK's automotive heritage....bit like saville.... unfortunately it happened!

 

[Gtpulse]

I try to forget that the Allegro existed. Every time I see the name it conjures up the thought of rust, bouncy seats and travel sickness.

It's the miss matched brake blocks that do it for me

But surely that chrome on the stanchions makes up for that discrepancy!!???
Sort matching brake blocks it's a contender for
SBOTM ....innit?

 

[The History Man]

I’ll just leave this here. My second car. Heritage if ever there was such a thing.

Perhaps the seller saw an article in November 1992 MBUK and assumed it a classic
Especially as tested against a Explosif and Orange prestige......
