I bought this in Autumn 2019. It had one owner prior to me. I then passed it onto my son who used it extensively during lockdown when he was working from home. He has since changed employment and for the last 9 months has been back in the office. It is in very reasonable condition. There is a small ding on the left side of the drip tray, with a coffee bean next to it for scale. It has been run on a combination of RO water and since my son took it he just used our soft Northumbrian water!
It comes with a single spout pf and a bottomless that I believe was bought from Londiddly, and a spare handle since the bottomless has a wooden one. No issues to report. The seals were last changed two years ago by our very own Patrick and if I can find it, I will offer an @Norvin made seal changing tool for a few quid extra. They really make seal changes easy. Without one, it is a genuine struggle!

I do not have suitable packaging for it so would be reluctant to ship it. If anyone is interested, we can sort out the finer details like transport. I am based in Newcastle. You are most welcome to come and have a play. I have tried to describe it accurately. For anyone who does not know the history, these machines (the Mark 1’s) came out late 2012. They are a true lever using no electronic wizardry. It is just man versus machine!
I am going to source some packaging for this in the next couple of days. If I am able to, then as long as the buyer is able to arrange their own courier, thus taking responsibility for any problems in transit, 🚚 will be an option.
