I sold this bike to a person who lived near to Crystal Palace (Mr Russ Bleach) who then sold it to a lady also living near to CP who intended to race it but never did,it was then sold to another female with the same intention's but never did. She sold the bike to someone who belonged to MAG but he only collected the bike side (the s/car was a bolt on) as his vehicle was too small,never to return for s/car. Said female then re-advertised and sold the s/car to another MAG member. So if the bike still exists it's in 2 places owned by 2 MAG members. I know this is a long shot but i would like to find and buy it back.
666 first bike, where is it now?

This one is going to be a long stretch I think, but we'll try it! I'll get it on the front now that I found the email with the pic attached.

Re: 666 first bike, where is it now?
Think the Vauxhall was called a Victor 101, im sure RP will know as i think he was the main man at Murkitts in those days 
That model may not be a 101 just the basic Victor,but what do we young ones know
Lets wait for RP to tell us

I have just been watching a 1990's newsreel and I think I saw Ossama Bin Laden
swooping round a left hander in Afganistan with Lord Lucan hanging out left.
I feel sure he was on your old bike John.
