Thanks Lotusless, I don't think it'll be soon :-/ money and all that but thought it was time I pulled my finger out and started doing some research and looking about.
I don't want a minter, I want to run a rough one if you know what I mean, well, not that I don't want a minter, I can't afford one simple as that.
Anyway, my old Lambretta scooter is the same, ie mechanically good but looks rough as a badgers ass
