In my occasional lunchtime trawl of eBay I came across this. Nice to see the resurgence of a classic British company....................or is it?
Anyone know anything about it???

It would be nice to think it is the SAME company. And I hope it is!
Many resurgents are "Old British" in name only.
Though it is nice to think that a modern company may think there is advantage in ressurecting a "lost" name.

If it was painted red I'd have mistaken it for a Honda GX160

Just glued a badge on. If it is a Honda I don't understand why anyone would do that. Honda have a fine reputation as engine builders

After some research a visit to http://cnbronco.en.alibaba.com is suggested. Be ready to proclaim "Well I'll go to the foot of our stairs" or what ever is your local equivalent! Confused

I know there's a lot more to this, but on the face of it the GX200 is about 30 quid at the factory!
