It looks late 80s/ early 90s am I right? Bit far away from me but might still make the trek to get to it

I wouldn’t bother mate, be a waste of your fuel.

Mid 80's ish... make a nice restoration project for the money if you can be bothered.

It is cheap for a reason mate......if it was round the corner may be worth a look but I wouldn't waste any fuel. Looks like a late 80's toy shop/ catalogue bike...it will be very heavy and probably rubbish to ride. If you just want a hack to go to the shops on then fine....

Thanks for your replies, my nephew wanted to buy it and asked if I could pick it up for him, he is looking for a cheap bike for school that had an old look, I was curious as to its age, in stead I have one a picked him up a big daddy with skyways on.
He is only going to use it for school but he is looking for a more older style so ill keep an eye out for him. Cheers guys

Better off looking for an early mid school bike such as a Dyno Compe which has an old school look about it but can be had for reasonable money ( £1-200) and reasonable quality too....can be upgraded with some old school parts and decals to look older...
