Life Fitness C3 Upright Cycle

Goes Rusty

Advantages: Quiet, good basic range of training sessions
Disadvantages: Goes rusty

There get out - apparently a dehumidified out-house was not a suitable environment (so what is). Unfortunately one sweats when using it and the screws that went were right in line for this.

There was plenty of leg and head-room, even for my husband who is over 6 foot tall. As a small but accessible family car, this certainly looks impressive and is comfortable and easy to drive. My C3 (the 1.1 L) was the bottom of the range model and cost me just under £7000 from a main dealer back in 2002, when it was sparkly and brand new. A quick google informs me that C3's are currently available for roughly the same sort of price but, in the current economic ...
