The mind boggles - who would have £45+K to spend on that non-Eriba like 630..................................? To me it's not what Eribas are supposed to be.

I wonder if these high prices will in the long run see the numbers of Eriba owners dropping significantly over the next few years Especially as some of us on the Forum have bodies with bits failing or falling off and this will only get worse..........................?

That’s a common problem for most of us when we are over the age of 50 Mike

I agree but it's when 50 becomes a vague almost ancient memory.................whilst saying that I am still playing over 60s mixed doubles tennis every Friday night and jointly run East Lancashire Table Tennis Leagues twice weekly Bat and Chat sessions at our regional table tennis centre. Some things are still working but putting up the large PopTop awning seems to get more difficult every month.

It may sound humbug Andy but am I not right in that you are now on the dark side with your Bailey for reasons that are sensible & legitimate to you.......

I must admit that I still yearn after an Eriba and have a constant internal battle between my desire to be back among the Eribarati and the practicalities of the Bailey.

When I pluck up the courage to mention this dilemma to Mrs SDA she reminds me of how I used to complain about both 540's washrooms. My answer, of course is that we've never had a taller, wider Troll, or a post 2014 washroom. But then again, you'd be getting into post 2010 production values which just aren't as becoming as their predecessors and cost an awful lot more.

And as I'm reminded that I'll be waving goodbye to 75 come Epiphany I bet I've got more bits falling off than many on here.
