    are there gems hidden away in sheds for snapping up?

    hey folks,
    took a deposit on the golf, so kinda looking around for options now.
    anyone know of any 200sx/180sx hidden away that would be buyable?
    i've seen everything on all sites, and nothing really catches me. either its cheap scrap
    or way too flashy for where i live. a nice basic 1.8L s13 would be deadly, or along those lines.
    must be solid and sound, can be uk reg....

    wont say a budget until something turns up ha.

    see who can pull some strings/contacts.
    there will be compensation upon bought car ha

    Neelie, Ronnie's car was owned by Neil F on here. He had it for 18 years or so. Just look him up and check out his threads to see what sort of life its had.

    I bought it off Neil and did this to it...

    http://www.sxoc.com/vbb/showthread.p...car&highlight=

    I sold it to Ronnie as I felt I'd taken it as far as I could and I felt it was now good enough to be reasonably safe from a drifting fate.

    I'll let Ronnie tell you the rest of the story.

    If you don't mind an auto, Tigley has a 41K mile one owner up for sale. It needs a little bit of work to the tailgate and the drivers sill but otherwise looks very clean.

    She's selling for her Dad who's had to stop driving. She's in Southend.

    Be warned though, its pic heavy. Daz "sticker-bombed" the thread with pics.
