The Sun is shining get those buried bikes out of the shed !!!

Busy, Busy, Busy

What a week it is as you would say a little crazy.Time to get the bikes out and get them on the road and make hay while the sun shines. 

Been contacted by a film production company earlier in the week wanting a GPO Puch Moped similar to the one that I sold. The only thing is the one I sold was exported! Fortunately after phoning a few contacts and friends it looks like something has been found. I won't earn a penny from it, but it's nice to have that feeling you've helped someone out:-

I've also currently got my 1963 Vespa GL150 for sale on ebay and there seems alot of interest. I can't see it making the £4000 I invested in getting it restored, but at least it hopefully will go to a home where someone will use it and it might even give me a little bit of space. So far it has had 2,500 views. I hope whoever really wants it doesn't miss out by trying to bid right at the end and getting gazumped. Here's the link:-

If I am difficult to get hold of at the moment by phone apologies, I am a little bit behind, but still trying. If you can email classicmopedspares@hotmail.co.uk or text me.

Sorry can't write much more must dash

Stormy Weather stops trip to France

Stormy Windy Weather means Ferry Cancellations

Unfortunately I have had to cancel my trip to France. due to Ferry cancellations. What has happened to the weather? The winds have really picked up. A real shame I was looking forward to popping across the Channel.

Certainly no 'Bon Voyage' for me!

On a positive note the falling blossom from the wind swept trees looks fantastic, but please stay safe on your mopeds out in the wind!

Bargains at Classic Moped Spares due to the UK exchange rate

Has there never been a better time to buy from Classic Moped Spares Uk from USA, Europe and abroad?

If you are in a different country especially United States of America and want to buy from Classic Moped Spares now could be the time to buy! Get discounts based on the exchange rate changes!

The weakening of the UK pound has meant that now could be the best time to buy from Classic Moped Spares. For example the US Dollar to the Brtish Pound was as high as 1.7 dollars to the £1 last year. This week it was as low as 1.45 dollars to the pound, but for how long?

For example if you spent 170 dollars in 2104 the same item could have only cost you 145 dollars this year saving you 25 dollars which is about 15%.

Did you know that in Europe the Euro is also lower against the pound so you could also save about 7.5% based on last years average exchange rates if buying from Europe.

This also applies to the shipping cost as well. No wonder the ladies looks so happy!

Exchange rates are subject to fluctuatation so please check exchange rates at the time as I cannot guarantee accuracy of this information in the future
