Default Re: WQ Fiesta XR4/ST150 with Mazda SP25 engine

I've been keeping an eye out.

West coast is too far for. me East Coast NSW is where I am looking. High mileage is actually Ok for my needs. The real gem would be to find one that has recently lost an engine or has 'spun a bearing' - or at least is making a 'tic tic' noise that the seller thinks would be an easy fix. 'Slipping clutches' OK too.

I'd consider a repairable write off too. I don't frequent the Auction sites enough to know when one comes up for sale - there aren't any at the moment. And since I have a day job, the scramble to retrieve within the 24hr window if I'm not local is my challenge.


On another note, Russell has opened up this forum for anonymous read access, so this thread and others are now being indexed on Google and appearing in searches.
