Well I have some plans for this car as it is my project car and I know I'm new here but wanted to get a feeler out to see if someone wantes to buy my rwd starlet. its a 1984 semi full history with about 9months mot. no tax tho' its a 1 litre 4 speed manual with about 97k miles and very little rust. the top mounts are solid as are the wheel wells etc. basically something's come up that I really want (really really) still old skool rwd but obviously I need to sell this before I can do anything. The car i want has some interested buyers and no doubt will sell soon, so if that opportunity goes so will this if you catch my drift?? I had an engine swap and gearbox swap planned that can be bought for an extra £150. (I'll pass on the guys details) the car as is stands at £500 thats less than waht I paid for it a couple of weeks back. the car starts on the button and I drove it back to swindon from chelmsford no problems. hit 70mph too. some pics if you didn't see my post in the general forum    |

Just I'm only nearly 15 and I would have to have a reason to buy it (ie my mum could use it as an economical runaround)  |

I definately would, unfortunately I have to borrow money off my dad, and he's not sure because I already have a half built car in the garage. I have to persuade him that I need a year of practising driving before I can hillclimb in 2007.  |
