NMH said:What? That's a piece of crap mate, you'd have to be barking. In the US, unless it is a nice early model convertible, you can get those for about 5 or 6 grand, ship it for 2 and do all the paperwork for 1.
That one doesn't even look good, it is VERY probably a dog, and will cost cost cost to keep the thing running.
I looked at a used 2002 Aston Martin 'Vantage' that was around £40 grand, but over there that would also get me a nice E-type plus a cool 50's Chevy convertible to use every other weekend!
Sorry Muzzman, but if that piece of junk takes your fancy, you would do well to shop for what else is out there.

tedebear said:Thats your opinion though, most of the US muscle cars need a heck of a lot of work to get them sorted over here. Notorious for handling like dogs, steering ratios like the USS Intrepid, and engines like horse poo on a good day. So I'd be more inclined to add about 3 or 4 grand to your price, unless it needs a full engine rebuild when it'll add about £5k. Which (without the engine rebuild) makes it about 11-12k which is about what its worth.
And frankly I'd refer to a Chevy convertible as a piece of junk. Just my opinion though...
