If the green one is as tidy as it looks in the pics and there's no rust hiding under the chequer plate sill covers I'd say thats a bargain and is buy it if I had a spare 800.

The yellow one looks quite nice as well.

Seems to be some well priced sjs around at the moment.

I asked about rust this is the reply: its solid its just passed its mot no advisories the sill plates are for fancy not to hide rot pheraps youd be better coming to view it there are a couple of scabs on bonnet and rear corners by bumper as ive put in ad could do with a tidy up but its solid and drives well its not expensive with all that tax theres a lot worse on here with no mot fetching what im asking for it theres already 34 watchers so it wont be long before its sold its upto you but i dont want to end it and trail all the way to yours for you to say you dont want it ive described it honestly and with a tidy up it will be worth a lot more if you want to buy without viewing then thats your decision but at £800 delivered your only paying £600 for it as tax cost £130 and £70 delivery you wont buy another with full mot for that.

It's too far for me so I'd be buying blind (bit of a no no )if I go ahead.

If he's being honest then that is a bargain.

how far is it from you, I would advise to go look at it and drive it back as it's safer than buying blind, it does sound like an honest response and he is right, in the future it will be worth more, but you can only 100% trust your own eyes :thumbup:

I bought mine blind, it was a 4 hr drive for me. Haven't regretted it. But mine was always going to be a restoration, And I'm going to pick some seats up from Birmingham on Saturday and that's 2 hrs for me. all depends on how bad you want it I suppose.

Cheers Ian

Rust wise, check the front footwells (lift the carpet)

Behind the seats around the seatbelt mounts and behind the rear arches

I'd be more surprised if you don't find any :hahaha:

BUT it's not too difficult to repair

It's at the bottom of the main board in the trading section. Don't think there's many on here at the moment but you could try the difflock classifieds forum.difflock.com/adverts.php?category=Suzuki&sub_category=Vehicles&sid=6063a495eec2dabdbecf02ea10a2830f
