I've seen a few but there always seems to be a problem with them! It'll be exactly what I want but will have a sunroof or aircon 
Ideally I dont wanna spend loads! Trying to find one with a goosed engine or no engine so it brings the price down.

What you got is exactly what Im after. Is that the going rate for something like that (at an auction)? Or did you just get lucky?

i got quite lucky i think... the engine had gone (valve stem seal i think) but was driveable...
Its worth a look tho... and is free to go.
That ebay one has shite paintwork, and in an auto (not that much hassle but you'd need to pop a gear stick in )

Matt, you need to find the latest B you can with the worst engine.
It shouldn't be hard - there are loads of merit/envoy gone to little old ladies, just wait for one to come up.
