A roadster build is not an overnight job like a caterham or westfield so the one thing you have is time to keep looking and find one local to you at a price your happy with bide your time and keep looking

Just my thoughts

Hope it helps

Well - to be honest I don't know what to expect - so would currently accept that if I need to pay £500 and do a round trip from Essex to Devon to collect a driveable Sierra to butcher then so be it!!

jps......that IS the best attitude to have going into a roadster build ....there are ways and means to get around just about any problem that can arise.....and I am not saying it can be a money pit as anything can nowadays but persevere and stuff will become available just be eagle eyed on ebay ,papers, gumtree etc
