Thanks Gambit. Challenge one is telling the better half. I’ve half slipped it into a WhatsApp conversations buried in amongst a shower of compliments , I think she’ll notice....but in previous purchases of big lumps of metal, I’ve found its generally easier to ask for forgiveness rather than permission.
Seen a couple of good ones, looking mainly at finding something with half decent bodywork. Perhaps I’ve missed it on here...but how does the underneath of these cars stand up to UK roads/salt...i read somewhere of subframes being shot (even though body was looking good)...Is this is the front subframe I’ve heard about, anything else underneath that I need to check out?
Ultimately I am not in the market for a A1 car (don’t have the budget), but something that I can drive out and use as my Welsh B Road machine for a couple of years at least...occasional nursery/school car too maybe :)
