The 250HK operates the same as its bigger brother the 500HK, with the vast majority of spare parts interchangeable. Since you dont have any...
Frohes neues Jahr! A nice little Optimus 1200, am I correct?
Athbhliain faoi mhaise duit. Hopefully 2021 will be better than the year gone. Happy New Year to all.
