If you really want one, be prepared and expect to do some leg-work in order to get it.

You're making life hard for yourself if you're putting 50 miles radius on things. Best you look in local rags, shop windows, supermarket ads and befriend some pensioners that might have/know of where one is stashed.

Well the newest ones are at least 20 years old...

Just sit back and relax. Something will come up. You'll probably see loads of them for sale just after buying one....

when I've put quotes in the difference between 1.4 and 1.7 was tiny and still not much more for 2.0
A 1.4 vario came back same price as my 360 :/

Good luck mate, i was lucky and only had to travel about 30 mile for mine :)

need's small bit's of work here and there but has some good points like full history (old m.o.t.'s) and towbar, and what looks like a funky original radio in the dash :wink:
