    Lovely indeed . I nearly bought one back in the day, and an acquaintance advised me not to. He'd had 3 - in less than 9 months. The first 2 had exploding gearboxes and in the last one almost everything electrical packed up. Unless you're very lucky (or can fix most things yourself, including engine rebuilds) they are an absolute money pit.

      let me know if you find that one

      Some ideas for cheap money. I reckon if you held on to them and kept them in good nick, you could sell them for more than you paid for them, and get to use them.

      Maserati 3200 3.2 V8 GT 2dr
      Jaguar XJS 5.3 HE 2dr
      Mercedes-Benz CL 6.0 CL600 2dr
      Alfa Romeo GTV 3.0 V6 24v Lusso 6 speed 2dr
      BMW 6 Series 3.5 635CSi Auto 2dr

      All cars I personally like and you don't see on the roads very often now.
