viewtopic.php?f=51&t=35458

Am hoping to go see the above this weekend, and its owned by a memeber on here, and has been owned by 2 others from here too.
I would like some help making up a checklist of things tho, as this is my first fronty, and my boss is paying for it so dont want a shed! So what shold i check, look out for on such a model?

Pedigree even.
As Fronties get rarer will we end up having to break some to keep the others going?

Unfortunately I've had to end the sale for now, as I'm not sure what's happening about a replacement. It may, or may not, be back on the market in a couple of weeks time.
