Excellant, do you know the chassis numbers from the Portafolds?

Also, could you email me some pictures of your Mini-Motel? I still haven't seen what they look like.

Calling Paul Smith...

Does anyone know a Paul Smith who's into Reliants and by the look of the pictures he's posted on the internet, also owns 3 Portafolds.

If you're Paul give me a shout. Many thanks
