Anyone know what happened to/who now owns Dickie Dare's ex-Longman Datapost S1?



Cheers 'n' that,

Dick sold it to a bloke called Simon. Simon sold it to RSWOZA off the RSOC BB who then had to rebuild it after the engine blew on it's trip round Donnington at last years National Day.

IIRC it was up for around 15k although I might be wrong. I was half interested at the time but not interested enough!!
