It's a 2 berth and is in good condition considering it was registered in 2000. 65,000 miles. Engine has suffered water ingress and locked up causing a bent con rod. It runs but is un-driveable. Interior is good with no leaks. I have been quoted about £2000 to repair it. Not been used since the last MOT. If you want it I would sell it for £2000 ..read more

So, my inverter has proven to be U/S and has been recycled and so I am in the market for a new one but the choices are blowing my mind! I know I want a pure sine wave inverter, I need a continuous supply of 1500 watts and peak supply of only a little more than that (I know some will say 'why do I need that many watts and my answer is I like my toast and have a low wattage toaster that max's at 800w but I want to over compensate) but how do I choose from the plethora of different suppliers...
