I have decided that my next project will be a car that I will be happy to use on track days and regularity trials. The idea of something mid-engined and pretty, but inexpensive, has taken hold. Given my penchant for Italian metal, a Montecarlo seems to be the perfect thing...

The idea is to find a car which is structurally sound and roadworthy. I'll get a couple of sessions with an instructor (probably at Goodwood) to make sure I can get on with a middie, and assuming that goes to plan I'll start working on strategic updates and improvements over time.

Does anyone have any experience of this approach that they want to share? And if anyone knows of a basically sound Monte for sale....

I had a Monte S1 years back, sorry but Italian metal and the Monte wasn't the perfect marriage :-(
Good luck with your search.
