Re: Holes......

Thanks folks. Well, a bit of an up-date (and a tiny rant) I saw a Portafold on FleaBay, rang the person up to ask about it, he asked me what would I pay for it, I told him, he laughed, we came to an agreed price, he told me to send him a cheque for the full amount, I did (I know, I know but, I'm a t...

Re: Hellooooo - Portafold Wanted

Thanks for that, I'll check 'em out after I've cooled off from being really exited about owning a Portafold and then, in one fell swoop, not owning one. :?
Thanks Matt. Billy

Re: Hellooooo - Portafold Wanted

I wonder if anyone could tell me the rough weight of a Portafold please? I/we actually bought one last Sunday then, a week and a day later, and 4 days before we were due to travel (a hell of a long way) to pick it up, the person who was selling it either "changed his mind" or, someone "changed" it f...

Re: Holes......

Thanks folks. I didn't think to say that, if I had to drill any holes, mostly they would be out of sight. :oops: One of the reasons I bought my PA Cresta is that it has been 'messed about with' (engine upgrade) so, the more I mess about with it, I can't knock any more value off it. For instance, I'v...

Holes......

Hellooooo all, soon I/we/ will be the proud owner/s of a Portafold. Just wondering, will much value be knocked off it if I have to drill holes in it for such things as; water waste, water input, flag holder, fender skirts etc?

Re: Hellooooo

Hi Dan and what a coincidense...your the great chap I mentioned above! :thumbup: Yep, if one's got my name on it, i'll get one.

Hellooooo - Portafold Wanted - NO LONGER REQUIRED

Hellooo there. I'm new...well, not in the Biblical sense because I'm actually 54 and 3/4. :| But new to this 'ere Portafold malarkey. :thumbup: I have a PA Cresta so I thought it would be rude not to tow a Portafold behind it so I'd like one please. Problem is, I have short arms and deep pockets. No...
