Vintage Magellan Meridian GPS (LN1 Lincoln)
This is a top of the range (in 2004) Magellan Meridian Color GPS unit with all the essential accessories. Car/boat quick release mounting cradle 12V car charger Mapsend Streets’ (full European maps on CD) PC interface cables SD card (map/route storage) Handlebar mount and cradle In great condition and in perfect working order, although it’s a bit slow and clunky compared to a modern phone! £300+ back in the day. Could be a great teaching tool for a Scout group or similar.

Beer/wine fridge (LN1 Lincoln)
Gifted
Glass front, illuminated, two shelves. Works very well. We’ve used just it to give extra capacity for BBQs, Xmas, etc. Top is scratched, so probably more suitable for garage, shed or man-cave. Size is 86cm tall, 50 wide and 60 deep.

Pentium 2 ATX PC (LN1 Lincoln)
Gifted
4GB RAM 2x 150GB hard disks DVD-RW Multi card reader VGA and HDMI video Monitor not included, but comes with WiFi dongle and cheapo mouse + keyboard if wanted. Good condition, fully working and disks blanked ready for you to install an OS of your choice. I’ve been using it to test Linux distros, recently Mint (as pictured). Could probably do with something a touch lighter for this hardware spec.

Sky WiFi Extender (Lincoln, LN1)
Gifted
Model EE120. Was working perfectly with Sky router, but changed providers and it doesn’t seem to work with Virgin or Vodafone routers, so I’m guessing Sky have tied it into their service somehow.

Jaguar XF service manual CD (Lincoln, LN1)
Gifted
Full XF service manual in PDF format. No installation required. Strictly speaking, it’s for the early pre-facelift models, but there’s not that much difference.

Yamaha midi stereo (Lincoln, LN1)
Gifted
FM radio, amplifier and speakers all work very well. However, the CD player is extremely temperamental recognising discs, and one of the two tape decks doesn’t seem to be doing much. Thankfully, it has an aux input, which I’ve been using for my PC sound… the amp and speakers really do sound good!

Vintage PC driving games (Lincoln, LN1)

Logitech computer joystick (Lincoln, LN1)
Gifted
It’s a ‘Logitech Wingman extreme digital 3D’ to use its official title. Highly thought of in its day. Has 6 programmable buttons, 8 way top hat, trigger, throttle slider, and twist handle for rudder control. Little used, and in perfect condition. I believe it works perfectly, it certainly did when I put it away, but I don’t game or use a windows PC anymore, so can’t actually test it. USB interface and recognised as a standard HID device on Windows, so no special drivers required (or that was the case 15 years ago when I last used it). Also has a game port interface if you’ve got a really old setup!

Microsoft PC steering wheel/pedals (Lincoln, LN1)
Gifted
Microsoft force feedback steering wheel with pedals and power supply. Good condition, and all worked perfectly when I put it away about 15 years ago. Unfortunately, I don’t game or have a Windows PC so I can’t actually test it. Has USB interface and was recognised as a standard HID device when I was using it, so no special drivers.

Panasonic 42in plasma TV (Lincoln, LN1)
Gifted
Perfect condition and also works perfectly. Has full HD 1080 screen, but the built in tuner is SD only (yes, for some reason, that’s how this model was designed). I’ve used a cheap set top box for HD viewing. Also works well with a PC via HDMI and VGA sockets. Comes with remote and user manual.

Pair of clamp on lights (Lincoln, LN1)
Gifted
Black metal lights for clamping onto shelving or similar. 12V halogen bulbs and transformer. Individually switched. Flexible necks can be positioned as desired. Work fine, but metal lamp heads are showing light corrosion (as pictured) so maybe more suited to workshop than lounge!

Artificial Christmas Tree (Lincoln, LN1)
Gifted
About 5 feet tall. Collapses to fit in a box 4 feet long by 8 inch square. I put it up in about 1min for photos. First time out of the box for 25 years, so not as bushy as it should be. Could possibly be teased into a smarter form with more time and patience!

IKEA shelf units - light oak finish (Lincoln, LN1)
Gifted
Hi. I have an Ikea Billy book case, and two matching cd racks to gift. Only one cd rack pictured, as the other needs reassembly (full kit of parts, can assemble prior to collection on request). I’ll also include the cd rack shelves missing from the unit shown. All are finished in matching light oak, and are 2m tall. The book case is 40cm wide and 28cm deep, the cd racks are 20cm wide and 17cm deep. Note that the two units pictured were screwed together in the arrangement shown (the cd rack was too unstable on its own), so there are a few smalls holes in the sides where they join together. I’m including the connecting fittings in case you want to do the same.

Chrome swirl ceiling lights (Lincoln, LN1 1AB)
Gifted
Two matching ceiling light fittings, fully working and in good condition, just don’t suit our new lounge colour scheme… apparently! Complete fitting is about 70cm across, and hangs about 25cm from the ceiling. Simple two wire (live/neutral) wire connection Mounting plates included.

La-Z-Boy 2/3 seat reclining settee (Lincoln, LN1 1AB)
Gifted
Very comfy genuine La-Z-Boy settee. It's well used, and some of the leather has faded from the original deep red to a much paler shade, as pictured. Two end sections recline and the middle section is fixed. Although bought as a 3 seater, it is modular so can be assembled as a 2 seater if preferred. Sections simply bolt to a pair of base rails, which would ideally need to be cut down a bit if you were going to keep it as a 2 seater. Is currently dissassembled to individual seat base and seat backs for easy transport - each part would easily fit in most medium sized hatchbacks. Collection from Long Leys Road, 2mins from A46/A57 junction.

iPad 2 (Lincoln, LN1)
Gifted
32GB in black / space grey. In excellent condition, but not supported by Apple anymore, so not ideal for use with newer Macs or iPhones as it's not compliant with latest security standards. Still works perfectly, though, so fine as a standalone device (or if you're not too fussed about security!). Just charged it up and reset it so it's unlocked for the new owner. Collection from St George's on Long Leys Road. Cheers Gary

Can't recall the exact spec, but presume it's pretty low... 32GB maybe? White and Rose Gold, with black case and screen protector fitted. In excellent condition, but not supported by Apple anymore, so not ideal for use with newer Macs or iPads as it's not compliant with latest security standards. Still works perfectly, though, so fine as a standalone device (or if you're not too fussed about security!). Just charged it up and reset it so it's unlocked for the new owner.
