skattrd .. it means nothing and was a random name I chose while slightly wasted years ago. As its slightly odd its usually available on forums - so if you see it anywhere else odds are its me ;)

Lee, Andy et al, I would like a GTA asap, but I really need to raise some money and the z3's got to go to pay for one - unless the GTA is rather cheap.
So I won't be looking too hard for one until the zeds gone, however theres a couple of things I need to fix on it first. Fingers crossed I can get the bits sorted on the car this week (I'm painting the kitchen this w/end) and sell the car whilst its still summer.

I've bought cars without test before, but old, simple cars (Triumph Spitfire, Scirocco) and got them back on the road ok, but French electrics scare me, so I'm not entertaining anything that isn't road legal ;)

The last time I heard from the seller of the atmo I mentioned previously was when I asked him about the situation with tax/test ... That is now 7 days ago, so its looking like a no go. It did sound too good to be true if it was road legal.


TBH I have owned lots of french cars and its not been the electrics that have given me the problems

If you want a running project, I got a cheap turbo for sale. MOT'd and needs a bit of love, but basically ok.

Otherwise buy Phildini's. Doubt you'll find better.
