As a kid i had either Intrepid reel or Mitchell, and were a good reel.

When i started back sea fishing i only bought cheap reels or free ones with mag subs, i never had a problem with them but someone gave me a Penn Silverdo SV 8000 some time ago.
Now as most will know this reel outcasted the cheaper ones.

I think you would be unable to buy this reel new now, so what Penn reel is the exact (or almost) equivalent?

Did have a quick google and the one i was asking about and looks like a report in Sea Angler in 2009, they were £38
