I bought a chop a several years ago from ebay. Paid for it via BACS (big mistake) and then the seller disappeared. Finally managed to get hold of him and after a couple of failed attempts went down to pick it up.

When I arrived, was a little perturbed to find I was in the workshop of a rather infamous black and white bike club. They pulled a reg plate and V5 out of a bin bag that vaguely matched the bike (there were a lot in there) and I was out of there as quick as my little legs would carry me.

Once home, did as many checks as I could to see if it was legit, made up my own VIN plate and to date, everything has been OK smile
