    Well, it looks like i`ll go with MP1 `s advice, and bide my time until the right one comes along.
    I`m not overly concerned about the colour, but would like an SE if possible, and of course a history. I haven`t had the opportunity to try one out yet, but if there was anyone in the area here (midway between Edinburgh and Glasgow) that could spare a minute to chat about their car, be driven in it etc, that`d be great !
    Anyway, please keep me in mind folks if you hear of anything coming up...

    The advantage of buying one off someone on here is that it will be known to the forum & it's owner knows how these cars work so good chance all the common problems will of been sorted.

    There is actually a nice BRG one for sale somewhere hereabouts - I'd go for it if I didn't already have one, love the BRG.

    Bit further north than you but there are a couple down around Edinburgh/Glasgow.

    As already said it may be difficult to get one perfect, they are fairly individual and even the newest ones will be seven years old. If it's not perfect take it up to Brian (Scooter on here) at Dreadnought in Callender and he'll get it sorted for you.
