Hello everyone :)
Newbie here looking for a La Pavoni Eurobar a Leva to replace my trusty old Europiccola, which I've owned for about ten years. I would really like to find either a nicely restored or trashy restoration candidate Eurobar for my kitchen.
I'm based in the UK where these are rare items so shipping, at least from my point of view, wouldn't be an issue for the right machine.
Thanks in advance
John

Hi there, i was looking for one of these as well.Francesco Ceccarelli has one in Italy at the moment, but its been modified with extra steel bars welded into the frame.This makes it impossible to remove the boiler for restoration without hacking the frame apart.I enquired about it, but was put off by this.The price has also just gone up.Send me a e-mail (under my profile) if you'd like a link.Francesco does Intl shipping and is very nice to deal with

Hi guys
Thanks for the heads up. I had actually seen this particular Eurobar on eBay but was put off by the frame modification and the general cosmetic state of repair of the unit. I'm really after one that has already been restored and looks close to new cosmetically, or a wreck that I can send away for restoration.
