it's the last nice day and the sun is diving.
gotta take Noelle to the dog park. her and jane are giving me dagger eyes.
:D
Oh my god.
NICE!!
I recently backed out of an opportunity to acquire one (for fear of me overspending and then having them become available in USA)
SUPER JEALOUS right now though, because that thing is BITCHIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Damn that was fast! :)
Holy cats!!! Awesome score!
I think that's my favorite of the Euro colors! I have been lusting over this color since I first saw it! Weber why can't we get these over here?
it was listed as just a 57cm. i found out today it's an MT.
sscchhhhwwwwiiiinnnnggg!
i wanted an ivory, but lime or "spring green" will just have to do until an ivory pops up.
wheel and front leg comparison to a USA 22.5.

more to come...
Can't wait to see her in action Spring Green just in time for Fall, still hoping that Weber standardizing there process with the handles and all will lead to Europe colors in the US one day
"more to come..." Now you're just teasing us. That is bloody cruel. More photos please.....you lucky bugger.
ok, the box was kinda beat coming from the UK so i was worried. the only casualty seems to have been the gormet grate. its bent such that it barely fits into the kettle. it fits but i'll see if i can get it bent back. pretty confident i'll be okay there.
i bought this NIB off ebay UK. the box was opened but it was never unpacked.
it wasn't advertised as a MT. that's just being lucky. ;)
the grilling surface height is 30.5 inches/ 77.47cm, the top rim of the bowl assembled is 32.5 inches/ 82.55cm.
birth mark. looks like the paint on the inside of the bowl ran a little.
