Guess what it is

Post by Gazza »

So I bought a bike yesterday. Woke up, looked out of the window and thought 'It has to be done'

Found one on AutoTrader and rang the dealer.

"Somebody is looking at it right now and is discussing a test ride" he said.

"Tell him to go away, it's sold" I said.

"Can you wait until he gets back? He might not buy it"

"And I might not ring back. Cash deal, right now."

"OK"

I'd have loved to have seen the guys face :log

Being delivered Thursday.

Who can guess what it is?

Are you suggesting two people could have been interested in a Harley at the same time ;)

I like your thinking, but I doubt she would have let me ride her for £5000.

Correct. Was that a guess or did you notice I changed my profile?
