Yup, very cheap
I was trying to steal it to be honest, I wasn't that bothered about it, just want another project but I'm in no rush.

Very tidy looking Raleigh Jaguar (looks similar to a Pioneer, much beloved of @SkipdiverJohn ) near Barnsley, has been modified for touring with butterfly bars and two racks. Just 75 notes.

Good find - looks like it"s been improved by someone who knew what they were doing and likes bikes. V brakes.

It actually looks like a late model Pioneer to me, possibly a welded import frame. The picture quality isn't too great. Definitely more recent than mine though. There's no way that is a 23" size frame, nowhere near that.

I've been thinking the same thing. That head tube is about as short as it could be. I'd say 21" at most.

Looking more closely, not V brakes at all but V brake levers? Odd?

I'd feel a right idiot riding that to the local bar.....mind you if l bought it l wouldn't be able to afford a drink, so problem solved l guess
There is a 1967 Curly Hetchins for sale in Otley West Yorkshire. A friend of mine saw a card offering it for sale in the customers notices section of Sainsbury's.
I think it's around £975 negotiable. Not for me but if anyone is desperate for one....
I can get a phone number if anyone is interested.

This looks very interesting. Have no knowledge of Archie Wilkinson or speedway bikes but could be worth a punt, certainly for twenty five quid! Sheffield.

That's the one that was on eBay last week. I think seller said it was a Vernon Baker (previously known as MB Dronfield). I think it may have sold for something stupid like £40!

I'm a little late to the party as it's no longer available, but I'm quite certain it's one of these. So largely unmodified, and not a Jaguar:
I bought this one (21") last year in as-new condition; I worked out it dates from about 1995. I had to have it for the colour if nothing else! Although it's not seen much road yet, it's been very useful in preventing me buying other tempting things I don't really need.
