tbh Mike your better of getting it in a local shop, I know its more exspensive but if you buy one say off ebay, how will you send it back within 2 years if it gets fekked ??, at least local you can.

I picked my last one up from CMS in Exeter. They asked what sort of charger I had and advised against me doing it meself as I would probably feck the plates. They trickle charged it up for me for nought & I picked it up later in the day. :)
