    318is needed

    Ok so it's pretty much on lads.looking for another IS, same old criteria, 97 and up, must be a sport, prefer a non sunroof, I'd like to avoid any of thè silvers and focus on say a cosmos or Swartz. Id like boston green not a massive fan of the other greens. I've seen the cosmos on dd already I'm going ta look soon but it's not really standing out to me. I'd prefer standard as I'll do the work myself but coilovers are a bonus. No stupid exhausts and I mean none at all, standard only, no stupid big wheels again not a deal breaker. Prefer under 150k or some serious engine work been done. I know these inside out basically so I'm going to be almost forensic in my inspection ie rust in usual places, ( arch, tailgate, skirts, sills, door bottons, bonnet ) and engine, ( any heating, any hunting, uneven idle ) box or diff issues etc ill be checking trialling arms and all underneathetc..

    I know it's not an easy thing so that's why I'm asking here aswel as my own search, usual IS money not dreamer cash, any help is great, failing this I'm going back vtec, cheers

    That first black one you posted looks well ropey - I wouldn't waste my time. It has all the signs of something diffed to hell and back.

    This doesn't look too bad http://cars.donedeal.ie/cars-for-sal...318-is/6309225

    Or this - http://cars.donedeal.ie/cars-for-sal...d-gone/6161004
    knock the price down - it's too dear for a car with head gone - buy an engine and stick in into it. Rubuild original or other engine for more power, stick back in. Has a limo as well.
