Anonymous Unregistered A	Afternoon all. New here to this forum and to coupes. I have been looking for a cheap coop for several months now and came across this AT ad. AutoT Ad Does anyone have any thoughts? Or know of any for sale for around the £3k mark. Preferably a non turbo version.

Go and have a look if its close by, maybe take someone who knows coops with you what about this one

Unfortunaltly it's a little bit out of the way for me (I don't have a car at the mo....!). Thanks for the link. A little to pricey. I have a fixed budget. No more than £3K I have a tax bill to pay. If there were anyone who know's coops available in the next few days in the north/east london area help would be much appreciated.

At £2000 you could easily end up with a garage bill equalling the same putting it right

I sold my T reg with 68k miles for £3,500 a few months back. Still looks cheap at £1700 but I bet that's what it books at
