    This was an Ebay score for £20 - arrived in original box, spares kit, spanner and mantles.
    NRV pip, cut-down biro spring and a filler cap seal needed, along with realigning the prston loop to be in the middle. some chrome had started to peel away but overall not as rusty as my other one.
    I think it had only been lit once before. It went perfectly and has been doing so for an hour now.
    Retailed by Vango so I guess it dates to the 90's - or did they sell them later ?

    It is going to be a birthday present for a friend that has a very poor one out of a skip that he never seems to have time to fix.

    Nice to see a fairly tidy one ,most of these you find in my neck of the woods have been used for sea fishing and are falling apart with rust due to salt corrosion.

    It's a very tidy looking example of the Anchor. :thumbup:
