Very close mileage to mine?

9000 miles.

That will go up this year though as I am riding it this season.

He was robbed, somebody on there wants 5k for one and theres another for 2500. The yellow ones seem to be very low mileage for some reason...

Yes, the £5k one is for a 2010 bike, that the seller is billing as a 'Final Edition'. A dreamer if ever I saw one. The £2.5k one is a classified ad from a bike trader, but the one that went for £2100 was an ebay auction from a private seller with 99p start...

And I rather like the yellow ones as well.

I hope the authorities are aware of this perversion and you are on the appropriate register

100 quid an hour and I'll wear a taffeta frock of any colour that you desire and spank you with the vegetable of your choice.
