Did you ask the seller about the smoke, let it run for another 10 minutes, service history (proof thereof)?

Ok so maybe something like that. it wasn't particularly oily smelling though, a bit of an odd smell! Could it be damp and oil?mazoo wrote: ↑Tue Jan 05, 2021 6:07 pm
We turned it off for a bit and then started again. There was still smoke after a few minutes. Didn't ask about the service history unfortunately.125erCrazy wrote: ↑Tue Jan 05, 2021 6:07 pmDid you ask the seller about the smoke, let it run for another 10 minutes, service history (proof thereof)?

Mazoo
Is the seller the owner?
As in actually owned/ridden the machine or a 'swiss tony' flipping a shed?

It is a sort of Swiss tony affair. It's an auction house so sold as seen. It's passed the last 3 MOTs and the current one runs until November this year.125erCrazy wrote: ↑Tue Jan 05, 2021 6:16 pmMazoo

This one then...
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/373393010734
Try offering less or just take a punt.
For £800 its not the biggest waste of money in the world if knackered but then I've spent lots more on a lot worse on e- blag through the bottom of a pint glass
If they selling for that imagine how little they paid
If in doubt go without as £800 notes saved and others will come along

You're right, it isn't that much, I just need a rough idea of worst case scenario with that smoke before I, make my mind up.125erCrazy wrote: ↑Tue Jan 05, 2021 6:50 pmThis one then...

Just to let people know I don't need anymore help on this but thanks to everyone that gave advice. Someone went and bought it this morning. So thanks to whoever that was I suppose it's a lesson learned by me, I probably shouldn't have said where it was.

Re: 2003 INNOVA Dodgy rust bucket or not?
My apologises as you didn't but I did
Hopefully it wasn't somebody on here who did your legs but with e-blag there is some competition but often reappear as clowns fail to pay (don't ask how I know)
