Alright mate, keep looking!!!! They are out there!!!

I looked at a few and in the end flew to Birmingham last Friday morning, picked a car up,drove 5 hours up to Stranraer in Scotland and got the ferry across to Northern Ireland and it didn't miss a beat! Paid just short of the 3.5k mark!

And i've been straight to East Coast Customs to get a health check and everything was a-ok!!! Well, coolant could do with changing so doing that this afternoon.

Good luck, Gav

Bought mine for £3k last year, 1997 UK TURBO DBM, car been looked after, full serv history, Lots of history, 1 Perv Owner, Only bad thing was MOTORWAY miles of 120k and stone chips to match.

Car never misses a beat, solid everywhere "SO FAR" that is.

To be honest aslong as major things ie ENGINE, BOX, and Diffs are ok, Im happy as i class myself as an enthusiast, so i love getting my hands dirty and teaching myself new things, with the help of the scoobynetters.
