yeah, its silly money here, but its a nice area, good school etc, thats why the prices are silly 
its stupid though, i dont really want to live anywhere else, cos nowhere nearby is as nice, but they are all cheaper

i will when i've worked out why im getting no pil pressure 
thing is though, the turbo is shagged, and i want a brand new one, but i want to get it running asap, so im gonna borrow a carb and carb type exhaust from a mate to get it driveable just so i can play about with the suspension and brakes, then get it mot'd.
then when i can afford it, brand new turbo.

exactly
i can either get it going for about 50 quid, without the turbo (for now)
or i can wait 400343 months and save up 500 quid to get a new turbo and sort out the other niggles before driving it.
i know what i'd rather do, less power, but more driving.

er... its on the logbook as a Mini Ritz 998cc... make your own mind up (remembering that i'll never be using it on the road )
the other 2 cars were a Sierra Cosworth, and an E30 BMW M3. i was surprised at the Sierra for cheaper than i thought, but the BMW was dissapointing

the Sierra was ONLY £2638.05 with NO ncb, which made me smile (if only i had the money )
the BMW was £2540.63 which upset me, i was expecting it to cost a lot less than the Sierra

Not bad considering you're age etc I would have guessed the M3 to be more expensive because, tbh, I know which one I'd steal first...if I was a thief

i'd steal the one that looks like a standard car, without silly box arches on it.
if i had 7k floating about, i'd buy one and insure it.
but i dont.
