Hmmmm, good find, G reg, a GLT...... nice. Sounds clean and tidy from the description, so that's the 3rd G reg saloon I know of now, and registered in September, not August.

Not wanting to bring alarm bells here :shock: , but why is the VRM check line starting with an N registration.
I know that this has heppened before by mistake but I also know of a few where this has been more **** :oops:

Hmm, well spotted. I've never really paid much attention to the VRM pay for the history part. Hmmm, worth finding out what happened there!

im thinking of bidding would make a nice drift car?

I'd rather take something not quite so (seemingly) tidy and original for a drift project... also if you're going to be ripping it apart, theres already an ideal drift project saloon about - Petes black saloon!

Indeed, I don't think a car that appears to be so clean and tidy should be turned into a drift car, there are more than enough 300's about that would do the job perfectly, and a lot cheaper.

I spoke to bennett on Monday with regard to the balck GLT saloon I have, and it is a long way to come for the car, which would need a trailer, but at £50, it's cheap mate. Let me know what you've decided, as there is no way I can get it up to the meet with me I'm afraid, no towbar, no trailer. If I get 5 mins I'll try and make some space to get under it and swap the fuel pump.
