{"product_id":"likamobile-steam-car-stock-code-8801","title":"Likamobile steam car","description":"A Likamobile steam car, it's recently come in from a long time customer of ours currently nearing the completion of a new build Foster Wellington tractor.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e    Regular readers will know we've had several of these over years - great fun to drive, they always attract much attention around the village.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e    Running on heating oil, the boiler steams from cold in ten minutes. At the end of the day you just turn the ignition off and push it into the garage, you don't even need to wash your hands - the ideal machine for somebody who doesn't like getting dirty!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e    We actually bought this car from the builder in 2009 - at the time it was new and unsteamed (\u003ca href=\"\/products\/likamobile-steam-car-stock-code-3767\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ethere are pictures in the archive here\u003c\/a\u003e). Commissioned for the road, it was rallied for a couple of years before coming back to us in 2011 and sold to the last owner, who has used it ever since.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e    Since last here the car has been repainted and acquired a commercially built lightweight road trailer to transport it, included in the sale.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e    It's been in regular use, with a week down at the Great Dorset Steam Fair this summer - in good order it runs well.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e    The previous owner fitted running lights and indicators back and front - currently disconnected, it wouldn't be a major job to reinstate them (although as the owner of an ancient Sunbeam, I'd can thoroughly recommend driving in daylight hours and hand signals - there's no good will come of this new-fangled electricity).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Station Road Steam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54009920717141,"sku":"8801","price":12700.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1023\/0094\/2677\/files\/8801-1.webp?v=1779899612","url":"https:\/\/stationroadsteam.com\/products\/likamobile-steam-car-stock-code-8801","provider":"Station Road Steam","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
