Hi, nice site you have here 
I'm looking for a runabout and have found a few interesting motors on here but not sorted yet.
I recently sold my "sensible" car, now looking for something to enjoy.
Wish-list :
tax exempt (essential), so late 60's early 70's
a practical estate car would be ideal but open to suggestions
mot'd or able to be mot'd with a few weeks work. maybe a mot failure or unfinished project?
needing some welding / mechanical work is fine but not a total rebuild, would prefer something that starts and drives.
engine size 1200 - 2.5L ?
something that won't need £1000's spent on new / rare parts.
looks are not too important, solid and shabby is good so I can see what needs doing.
must be legal with number plates etc, and hopefully new-style logbook.
around Newcastle / Tyneside preferred but can collect up to 150 miles away for the right car.
Have been to look at Minx, Volvo, Triumph estates, anything similar would be good.
... or does anyone got a scruffy "spare" car that I could put back on the road, or know where I can find one?
many thanks
