Look on your local Facebook market places
They are not cheap
I have had a few one I sold for £1200 all done
Average price is £300-£400 rough
Be prepared to pay a price

I know they arnt cheap and know how the market is with prices, I am an ex VW Splitscreen owner
im in no rush so will keep trawling, thanks.Everything we had as kids in the 70s is flying at the moment. I fancied a Meccano set like the one I had as a kid and got one off eBay, found a more complete one 3 months later and sold the first one for almost double what I'd paid for it! Nostalgia is big business now.
Have to ask Why? Beats me why you would want one inlet kids who had them when I was one were little posers
Because I can and I am
I’m just teasing you... this was in a bike museum.. it’s its only photo I took!!
That's lovely @LambethBoy , just got one today actually and happy with the price, just looking for some bits now on ebay to finish the build, it seems to be the only place to source parts now. I hope yours is pride of place in your man cave
I got a more 'sensible' bike which I still loved and spent all my time on, but I always looked enviously at the kids that did have them.
Weve gone from Posers to Yobbos 
, Im afraid I have a few different bikes and the girlfriend shares the same interest fortunately .

That sir is a bargain for a mint mk1, nice find
I had the chipper too as mum thought I was to small. Loved having a go on my mates one. Still spent most of my life on that bike, or it felt like.
Good luck getting one @superflyguy . Pics when you do. Aim for the MK1 with the real gear stick!
I have got one now, picked it up on Wednesday, I went for a MK2 as its what I had many moons ago, its missing a few items that I will hopefully source the next couple of weeks, but I will endeavour to get a photo up for you.
Haha I wondered if you'd notice the lack of brakes, I have most things , mudguards chain etc , it's trying to find original nuts and fittings, but no rush, I don't plan riding it, it's to go on the wallWow mate, that's gorgeous.
Chain and cables should be fairly straightforward. The lack of brakes is a bit scary. But... Wow. That's awesome.
