Please let the insurance pay quickly

There is a very slim chance that I could get hold of this very cheap.
The bloke is going bankrupt & needs cash desperately.
02 plate, 4500 miles & my mate reckons that if I wave ?2000 in his face the bloke will take it.

Beg,steal or borrow the money.

Not a huge fan of Guzzis but I love unconventional bikes.

If u have an overdraft....Just up it!

Or even, Dare I say it, a credit card. As soon as the insurance pays out, clear the card. Job done. Overdraft would be the best idea though.

Is that a longitudinal v-twin in there?

Yep, it's a ditch pump engine that dates back to the 30's I believe.

Dunno how much they normally fetch,and I know they are very dear new,but Id say ?2000 is about what its worth.

Book price £3700, trade in £3400, so it's a real bargain.
I have owned 2 Guzzis in the past & love em, but haven't been able to afford them since my divorce.
Also I have got into the frame of mind that if I can't pay for something, then I can't have it. I don't believe in loans, overdrafts etc. So it will have to wait till I have the cash. That is 1 thing I can thank my ex wife for
If I don't get it, then it wasn't meant to be

Hmm, I've had 14 or 15 bikes. All on finance or loans! I wish I could save but I'm useless at it. I don't like guzzi's but at that price even I'd buy it.

My Ex left me with a ?37000 debt when she upped sticks. It took me the best part of 4 years and having no money to spend on myself to get back on my feet. She taught me a good lesson.
Don't get me wrong, it's tempting, but I just can't do it by borrowing money.
