Wanted....A Car..!
Well, having got f**ked over in the flm situation, I am without a car and down a chunk of cash.
So, I want a car....!
I'm after something, don't know what exactly. I sold my 3.2 carrera to fund the swb car that never was, so, I'm open to most things.
The budget took a bit of a bashing so, I'm afraid I can't buy your numbers matching rs lightweight!!!!!
I have a 'realistic' budget, but probably unrealistic expectations!!
I'd rather not get into a money pit project, I'd prefer someone else to have sunk way too much money in to something and now be keen to sell..!!
It'd be nice just to be able to get in and drive it thought!
There must be/you must have, a 'something' sat in your barn/shed/garage that you're not going to use/finish, and feel the need to part with.
PM me if you've got something or know someone else who has.
Thanks
Julian

Re: Wanted....A Car..!
You're right.
Difficult to give a budget though.
Happy to look at most things and take on individual merit.
"as little as possible' is probably the best budget guide.

Are you looking for another Porsche - or just anything interesting ?

Re: Wanted....A Car..!
That's also a good question.....
I was after a 911, but I fear I might have missed the boat now. There must be one out there though!!
Although the prices are coming down there are some unrealistic asking prices, (or I'm totally out of touch).

Re: Wanted....A Car..!
Another good question.....
Again, it would depend what it is and how much it is!!!
I am open to most things, it'll come down to price......
