Anyone in Essex? This Principia is listed as 'spares' but only because it's untested - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/406886344275 - £52 start price:

Looking at the bike it's got a Dura-Ace 7800 groupset, which is worth way more than the start price, and may be a really good buy.

As an aside, I spend far too much time looking on F B Marketplace and it irritates me when a listing only has one photo😡.
I believe you can list with 9 or 10 photos plus a video so why not make the most of the opportunity.

Especially when they're asking £500 for a vintage bike.

All the best to any seller with an approach/attitude like that...

Funnily enough, I was only thinking about the Touriste the other day - I've seen plenty of Royals and Randonneurs for sale recently but not the Touriste. I was wondering how many survived, by comparison.

Not a bad price at all, whoever got it. I snagged my rusty all-original Royal for £60 last year, so just about still able to feel smug ^_^ !

Thanks for sharing.
