Hi all, i am looking for an excellent V8S, or does anyone know the 2 v8's currently on pistonheads?
As i am just North of Glasgow i do not want to be travelling miles to view rough cars!!

many thanks.

I know Big Roy has done quite a bit to his - thats the blue one.
I believe he has done a few track days, which personally wouldn't put me off.
The V8S is not an easy machine to find - I was looking for a V6 and came across one by accident near to where I live, a PH member mentioned in the forums he was thinking of selling and the rest is history.

The white one at Offord Motor Company has been around for ages - it looks very tidy but just too expensive in my view. I'd offer them something lower if you're interested

The green one in Lincolnshire I know nothing about.
I'd be interested to know why it has had a full engine rebuild when its only done 45700 miles, but there could be a perfectly good reason I guess.
Still a bit pricey.

Generally if the cars are priced right they don't hang about.

Ducker got a corker earlier this year for £7000

I have passed on a few so far, but still have 1 potentially excellent car to consider further, so still looking at present.

cheers.

Chris mentioned the one at Offord's, I have seen it but only through the window, it does look nice but I can't comment more than that. It might be worth seeing if any owners near you have any ideas?
