Pity about the colour. I've never heard of Competition Classics Metisse replica frames before or am I missing something obvious. Flowerpot Ben???
                                                               
Villiers Starmaker Engine (1963/65)

The motor has new internal bearings seals and needle roller bearings on small end.
The gear box is close ratio and has a new clutch assembly with a spare Clutch assembly and an unused gearbox.

The Dot sold for 1600 pound, which I thought that was cheap.

That Pipe just looks wrong on a pre 65 bike

Lovely machine with the exception on the color..I'm going to give it a bid...

pretty sure it is a modified Rickman Zundapp frame, modified to accept the Villiers motor with a body kit on it to make it look old (not one of mine)

I cant see past the colour.  Sadly not my cup of tea.

I've found that Competition Classics used to make a replica Petite Metisse frame as well as replica REH hubs and fork staunchions.....plus specialising in Villiers Starmaker tuning. Bill Tomlinson?? or something similar was the guys name. I can't find anything online however.
