Looking for an SJ.
Will be a surprise present for my wife when she has passed her test so, it needs to be pretty much stock ish.
Needs to be road worthy and tested, or nearly testable. don't mind a little work but I cant put more than a weekend or two into it before id have to give it to her so cant take on loads of work
Having said that, it can be as battered and tatty as you like. Not bothered.
Biggest issue is it needs to be hardtop. Van body would be first choice, followed by estate type body, or at a push a soft top with a fiberglass hard top.
On that note, if anyone nearish to sheffield has a hard top id be interested as it would mean I could consider a sort top SJ.
Near ish to sheffield would be fantastic (within an hour or two) but not too scared to travel.
I have up to about 1k to play with, less would be better (remember bashed and little interior etc isnt much of an issue) but I'm not paying so I may be able to wangle a bit more for the right one.
Thanks.
EDIT
Just found my old thread on sj's etc and am re reading that an sj may not be an ideal first car so adding a possible vitara option too.
EDIT
ok, might as well as sportrak on the list too.
