I thought I was finished with 200SX ownership. Selling Precious (a little over 12 months ago) was a hard thing to decide to do but the right thing to do for me.
It didn't feel right to replace her with any other car straight away so I bought a couple more bikes and then a little '08 convertible Tigra for my daughter.
I'd been sniffing around a few Jaguars and umming and aahing when the decision got taken out of my hands.
One Friday evening, I got home to find a letter from a firm of solicitors.
The basics of the letter were that someone I had helped out once had died. He decided that I should be the next guardian of his car so left it to me in his will.
Here are some pictures...
So basically, a prefacelift manual 2-owner grey S13 with 76K miles on the clock, a current MOT and seat covers its whole life meaning all 4 seats are unmarked !
It's not perfect. One sill has a frankenstien patch on it, the passenger rear quarter has a little crease by the rear bumper and.... at the moment... we can't find the keys
Oh, and it needs a bit of a "Jonny clean" lol.
As you can see from the pics, I managed to get inside (thanks for the tip Arry) and unlock it and fit a battery but getting it moved and into use is going to be a PITA without the keys so hoping they'll turn up somehow. I also have nowhere to put it really as I already have 3 cars and 3 bikes.
My wife thinks I'm mental, should have turned it down and bought a Jag.
Well, that's how it stands at Day 1. More to follow. Feel free to offer opinions/congratulations or call me names
