thinking about trading up to a CWS Best mig 160i

[RaceDiagnostics]

I bought a second hand Clarke 105EN (£125) a few years ago for car body work and have done a fair amount with it, Jag wings and floors and the same on my merc.

The wire feed on it has been dodgy since day one but I have managed, the wire stalls every few seconds due to the roller drive shaft being bent.

Anyway I'm thinking about trading up to the CWS Best mig 160i, if I sell on the 105EN for £100 its going to cost me £270 ish, do you think I will be happy with the results?

I should say so, although I think £100 for the Clarke might be a stretch. I think @brokenbiker has one and he's very happy with it.

Give Terry or Graham a call at CWS, they'll sort you out

Second hand MIGs sell for a bit more on Gumtree up in Scotland as they are thin on the ground compared to England.

I have also found someone locally with a 160i who have offered a try on it, will be great to try before I buy.

Fair enough, if you can get it then hats off to you.

I'm sure you'd be happy with it, whats the plans for usage?

More of the same, the Jag needs new rear arches and passenger/driver floor panels.
