Tunturi C40 elliptical/cross trainer

George from Naenae

An excellent machine from an excellent brand and still in excellent condition. Just isn't getting the use it should. We're also downsizing and need the room.

Not sure how old as we purchased it second hand from someone moving - guesstimate is 15-20 years? Still works fine.

An excellent machine from an excellent brand and still in excellent condition. Just isn't getting the use it should. We're also downsizing and need the room.

Not sure how old as we purchased it second hand from someone moving - guesstimate is 15-20 years? Still works fine.

It specifies a weight limit of 110kg - it certainly goes higher than that on the weight function. Have the manual. The power is an OEM as the previous owner's Siamese chewed thru the original cord.

COLLECTION ONLY - and it is VERY HEAVY. It will take two or three strong people to carry it downstairs (single flight, no turns).

Price: $50

Basically all roads leading to a local school have the speed limit dropped to 30 at all times, the streets in front of the school will also have speed bumps, and the High Street adjacent to the school will have its peed dropped to 30 at pick up/drop off times which is also peak commuter times. The only feedback allowed is which other streets need a 30K limit. Comments?
