I came across this site this morning and have no idea if it can be translated using Google. It's Dutch.
At first I thought it was one of those sites that aggregates or grabs from other places, but it seems it has unique sales. A bit like a Dutch Gumtree?
And there are a few 'unique' looking Viscount on here.
The grey and red GP is the most interesting one on there, but I am not sure if it is the photo but it appears to be a little 'off' with the frame colours?
Also, it has no price on it, so I can't make much comment other than that.
Then there is an all red aerospace GP that looks quite decent condition.
Not to far to go and get them though, if they are in Holland? (this follows on from discussion I had with Pete yesterday about sourcing vintage bikes from the continent)

EDIT- looks like the grey/red GP is 120 Euro , which at todays conversion rate in £96. Fair enough.
EDIT AGAIN- check this one for under £100 , the Brooks saddle and matching bar tape would set you back £60 on it's own?

EDIT YET AGAIN - i just managed to contact the seller of the red/grey GP, and he now says it's 250Euro. Not sure if i read the listing incorrectly or if it just jumped up. Not so appealing now.
I might contact the Pro seller with the Brooks saddle and check price on that.
