A friends Series 1 was hit whilst parked a couple of weeks back when we had the snow. It seems to have come out of it in better shape than the Disco   :)

not sure how this pans out cos the series is covered in snow but it looks like the disco is in warm weather!

Presuming the accident happened in the snow and the disco pic was taken later?

Not every problem can be solved with duct tape, and it's exactly for those situations we have WD 40

Yes. The Disco owner actually only lives about 5 houses away from S1 owner.

Thanks Matthew, that's a very interesting design.

Was the previous owner a fan of the 'Quadtech' 130's??

No idea, I think he did some market trading hence the big side door.

It's not a very standard series 1 anyway.
