Tim Mackey Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Yup - a joke, but I wonder if he will actually sell it - has 100% positive feedback Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Privett Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Nope, can't see you missed anything... FIFTY QUID buy-it-now?? Were they ever that expensive brand new? I guess it could make a second-rate paperweight. But not much else, and not at that price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Privett Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 "Bench tested about a year ago - now gone electric" He doesn't actually say what the result of the bench test was... And with an engine like that I'm not surprised he was driven to electrics! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Cantwell Posted August 10, 2011 Author Share Posted August 10, 2011 i would have a go at running it, thats not the problem, it could be a top of the range OS, but the sheer neglect of the thing appalls me, and to think its worth anything makes me smile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fly boy3 Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 I am using an old MDS 38 on my Super Scorpion, always started first time, never cut on me ,yet. I also had larger MDS's that were hopeless. I was told that up to a 40 they performed very well, but over this they were bad. True or false?. Sorry off topic. Cheers FB3. ps are they still on the market. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Cantwell Posted August 11, 2011 Author Share Posted August 11, 2011 lets not turn this into an MDS debate, the point is, its scrap, doesnt matter what engine it is, even an MDS deserves better treatmant than this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
