Is it possable to buy a reliable Nissan 200sx S13 for £2K or under? If so could somebody point me in the direction of a buyers guide?

What else would you recommend (doesn’t have to be jap, Does have to be reliable)

You could get a good one but it all depends on how it has been looked after. These cars are starting to get snapped up for the drifting seen and are getting harder to get. What do you mean it doesn’t have to be Jap. Are you looking for a cheap rwd car?


I want a fun reliable car. I like the 200sx, I'm trying to persuade my Gf that we can fit in an Mr2 but basicly I'm looking for a good car for under £2K, I'm concidering Beemers but I don't know much about them.

£2k is my absolute max and I'm wondering about the insurance of one. (what’s reasonable to pay of a 22 year old male with no points and no “no claims”?)

I need a car to visit my fiancée in York so all it needs to do is a Glasgow to York run about once every two weeks.

I do want to go drifting but at the moment I need a good road car. Because Lanny is going to start to learn to drive and I don’t want her to worry about happy backsides. And once I bought the car I won’t have any money!

I’m also looking at the BMW 3 series I’ve never considered these cars before (being obsessed with Jap cars) but it looks like more what I need right now.

So are these road friendly cars? Or should I leave it for a couple years? Again I appreciate all the advice you can give me?

P.S. how does this look on paper? As he is close to me?

The problem is there are not many for sale at the moment.
