We had two Cherokees over the years bought as cheap workhorses around the farm- can't remember how much they cost but not more than £2500 in today's money. Both had nearer 200,000 than 100,000 miles on and both were close to 300,000 miles before we passed them on. Bits fell off from time to time but you couldn't kill the engines. I know that one at least is still going strong.

I guess this isn't the answer- for some reason- because it's too obvious. You get seller to use his local RFD, who sends the gun to your RFD (seller has previously contacted and verified your RFD as genuine, and has arranged things with him- see later). You contact your RFD to confirm gun is as described and sound. You then send the money. On receipt of the money seller contacts your RFD and authorises release of gun to you. Simpilz- too simpilz, presumably.

A good deal for somebody. If only I was closer! Good luck, Andy.

You will, of course, need my email address! Please PM me for that.

Hello, I might well be interested. Could you email me pics, please? I'd like to see the rifle and to have prices for the other items listed- and pics where appropriate. Thank you.

I don't suppose you'll be in Scotland or even Cumbria in the near future?
