At least insurance is cheaper in Aus - i'm 22 and my Sprint's insured for AU$7,500 and i pay AU$700.<br>
<br>
Mind you the first quote i got was $2000 for market value of $5000...<br>
<br>
My girlfriend loves my red sprint - so i guess i'll just have to restore it for her <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :b --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... tongue.gif ALT=":b"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> (mind you she is still keen on a convertible - that's odd <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :rolleyes --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... s/eyes.gif ALT=":rolleyes"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> )<br>

Just curious as it was said that i could get a good sprint for between £1500-£2000. What would i expect to go wrong with it or how much rust would it have. also what is the going rate for a sprint with average mileage and no rust, generally speaking.<br>
<br>
Cheers

Start at a grand.<br>
<br>
Nice ones with provenance...1500 quid...<br>
<br>
Lulu's....2500<br>
<br>
The Best in the World...5 grand<br>
<br>
Then there is Steve's at 5.5k...go for it if you have the money.<br>
<br>
You can get them for less but only if you are prepared to do some serious work or are lucky or you name is Alun or Jon<br>

Ah-ha, there's the Joy, expect nothing, it will always surprise you!<br>
<br>
Except of course a steering rack required every two or three MOT's

Ah, a Sprint with no rust. They all do that sir, standard equipment. <br>
<br>
There was a Sprint (Yellow / Black Vinyl Roof) at (now closed) Wilmington Classic Cars on the A27 just outside Eastbourne a few years ago for £6995. Luckily, no blind people heard about it so it stayed a while (2 years) for those of us in the know to admire the lovely rippled paint-over-P38 finish and stunningly vague panel gaps. <br>
<br>
However, they were a Marcos dealer too, so there was always something to drool over as well. Particularly the Foreman P4 Ferrari replica.<br>
