Mate...
The reason she "the owner" took so long to contact u was that she was hedging her bets. She was waiting to see whether I wanted it.... but after coming across this post & seeing your pics, etc I told her no.... mainly because I found one near to where I live & in much better condition!!
I rang her today & told her that I was no longer interested.....
best of luck in finding one !!
