Looking to buy an ultima, where is a good place to look for good second hand, cars! There doesn't appear to be many on P/H!
Thanks Paul

Pistonheads is probablyt your best bet, followed by Autotrader etc.

There's not a lot out there at the moment, but expect to see some when the weather deteriorates in the autumn.

How about going to the factory open day and putting the word about?

Kit cars (sorry, self assm Super Cars) are pretty unique in the fact that some seem to enjoy the build more than the ownership experience.

If you offer a good price, I'm sure some would be happy to have had the build experience and get somewhere near their outlay back at the end of the build term.

If I was in the market, that's where I'd start.

Do you have a fixed idea of what you want to spend?
