Hey Sam, it's just a Puch (Team) Murray.....Halfords might have sold them but so did other shops, they were nothing to do with Halfords though. (and I have 2 :) )
Your Exploder is gorgeous, I don't suppose you have any of the decals? I bought the Scorpion a while back but always wanted the red Exploder BITD.
-
Holy Grail for me: Tange / Tioga Rhino (Axeblade) 8)
One came up for sale this year but it was beyond my budget at the time.
It'll happen one day ;)
