I cannot believe I'm seeing this! My dad owns the VKL30, has done since before I was born 34 years ago so this was my dad you met, Chip. He had it sat in his garage for years and since lockdown has started working on it again, it still runs very well and think there's only 38,000(ish) miles on the clock. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
