    There's also a Roadster [ looks to be Triumph based] on Facebook that someone in Sudbury Suffolk is breaking.

          Does anyone know if they are short or long wheelbase? The listing doesn't say.
          If they are SWB I would indeed snap them up1

            Robin if you had asked the seller he would have told you SWB. Lucky I don't need them.

                I did ask the seller! He didn't know there was SWB and LWB initially, but then came back to me saying they were SWB. I guess he did some checking.
                I do need them and I have made him an offer:-)

                Cheers Robin

                  I PM'd you after speaking with the seller , and as he has the body asked him to measure doors . Measurement came back consistent with SWB version.

                      Got outbid literally right in the last second. Looks like someone using a bidding program or very lucky.
                      It went for £231.99. Sounds a lot but I guess a lot chaeper than having one made....

                      Cheers, Robin

                        I always use a bidding tool to make a last minute bid or snipe as they are called on eBay. It means you can calmly decide on your max bid days in advance, and also means nobody really has time to thing about making a higher bid. Particularly handy if you are not able to bid on a good connection at the time, like in the pub or at work. You can never get around that feeling of 'if only I had bid £x more....' whether you use a tool or not.
