just get a buckfast powered syncro!

just make sure it has at least two rolls of barbed wire around it to stop the alcoholics stealing it!!!

If u were curled up in that hole u would have been gargaling or all we would have seen is bubles.
Would have had to have used a stick(branch) to lockate u

Flibbers!--seein as nobody else has helped yr--I'll jus say this---imho-petrol or diesel aint really the issue---if your looking for a syncro-you aint gonna have a lot of choice-cos there aint many around---get the one thats looks the best value--for ya money---
