[QUOTE="14cheeks, post: 28588, member: 2594"] Hello all. Many thanks for the valuable information given in the previous posts,thank you. Right where do I start.... The main reason for me wanting to buy a Vincent is for my dad. As every son knows,the parents will do almost anything for them. I have no children,and cannot have children due to my medical condition (I have CML). If you wish to look it up then please do. I could waffle on some more,but I wont!!! I would like to try a buy one without him knowing...... I would like to get my dad a vincent as when we have been to many bike shows over the past 20 odd years these are the bikes that we have both drooled over!!! I'm in a position now where I can buy one,and if I can get the right bike for the right money then I will. This bike will be cherished,ridden,and loved by both of us. I'll be the one trying to start it if my dad cant and he'll be the one riding it the most....:) Like all things over time,we aren't a strong as we once were!!! I would like (if I could find one) to get a matching number bike,with few owners,which has also been loved and ridden by the previous owner/s. Yes it would be classed as an investment,but it will be ridden,and not looked at!! This isn't me trying to get a cheap bike and then seeling it on,this willl be held onto for a long time. As you have mentioned about buying from an auction house. This is something I would rather stay away from if possible,I would rather deal with someone personally,who can PERSONALLY tell me ALL about the bike. I live in Wiltshire so if there is anyone who is close by which I could go and have a chat to about these bikes then that would be a great help. Many Thanks Nick [/QUOTE]
