Buying advice
For your budget, 4K would have got you this (now sold - scroll down a bit to see details): http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/A-Formidable-Z32-Nissan-300ZX-Twin-Turbo-with-Full-History-and-an-Amazing-Tale-/281256996622?ViewItem=&item=281256996622&nma=true&si=ntkS64E2D6S%252BULMo0NWqPivUSrE%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 A UK car with known history and service record. Cars of that condition do come up for sale, but not very often. It is really down to your budget and experience. Buy cheap, repair yourself (expensive if you are relying in professional body and/or mechanical repairs) or wait for a good one which you could enjoy straight away.

Buying advice
What was the condition of the body? Sills, in particular the sill area (inner and outer) in front of the rear wheels. Wheel arches. Signs of body filler or patching and/or recent resprays to hide poorly repaired rust damage. UK cars are protected to the same degree as imports by the factory for corrosion resistance but generally have had the most exposure to salting in the winter. Check carefully, ideally get the car up on a ramp to inspect.

Canadian Lancaster UK Tour
A very unusual event is taking place this year with the Canadian Lancaster flying to the UK and displaying with our own BBMF Lancaster at a number of air displays in August. These are the only two remaining airworthy Lancasters in the world. For those of you who are into watching (and hearing) WW2 piston engine aircraft this is something not to be missed. The sight and sound of eight merlin engines in two Lancasters roaring overhead in the UK skies may never happen again. Further information and display dates here: http://www.warplane.com/lancaster-2014-uk-tour.aspx

25th anniversary, convoy
If there is a M40 meet with the SC folks then I suggest we work back from that time for us.

I'm coming from J6, so if you want to join up at say Cobham services before heading up M40 I would be happy to do so.

Be interesting to see what that car actually sells for, but still looks to be a nice Euro spec: http://home.standvirtual.com/classicos-colecoparticular_visualizar_7749576_carros.html
