Well, I've decided to let the old girl go. After several hundred years she's starting to show her age. Right, here goes. What ya get, 1 sleigh, in red and black, in reasonable condition for age with all the bells and whistles. New runners all round, huge boot and has the ability to to circumnavigate the world in only a few hours. Only used for one night every year and comes with a full service history. Also comes complete with a 9rp(reindeer power) engine. I will consider all trades but would prefer cash as the local council has just doubled my council tax and I can't go inside the LEZ(London emission zone) due to the rather dangerous emissions that the motor puts out. Any reasonable offer considered. Call S. Claus on Lapland 001 or S-anta@aol.com. Thx for the ad. |

As its a sleigh I would guess its open top but dose it come with a full all weather kit i.e. top and side screens? and was the tracking done on the runners when they were changed I wouldnt want it to pull to one side or have premature runner wear as if there not set up right the runners might wear on the out side edge or something like that. is there a buy it now price and would you consider a P/X. _________________ If the world didn't suck we'd all fall off |

I sympathize with your problem Mr Claus. Have you tried to find an Elvish mechanic lately? They are the only ones that really understand the technicalities of this equipment and just can’t be found.
I blame ‘Lord of the Rings.’ After watching the daring deeds of Elves in this epic they have got an inflated idea of their own worth and refuse to get their hands dirty. _________________ Due to the onset of my mid eighties I'm no longer sprightly and rarely seen in my Austin special. I have written a book though. https://amzn.eu/d/7rwRRqL |

I thought that you'd sold it back in 1937!
