depends on how well the conversion has been done

speak to fuzzy off here - he's knows all about these conversions

personally; save and extra 800 quid and buy a tidy stage 3 saff

ive not seen the car in real life so cant comment on it specifically but i know its been up for sale several times for ever decreasing amounts this year.
to build one cost me £2600 just in labour charges for a garage to do the work .
a fair price if its in good order but i see it needs rust sorted out on the arches and a new turbo soon.
but you wont ever have the original cosworth touring...

would say the price is fair hard to tell how well the conversion has been done though, would be a real fun car to own

i have my complete conversion ready to drop into another e30 for sale for £1800. thats everything including mounts,exhaust,custom prop ,loom ecu etc etc but converted back to stage 1 chip and yellows on a t34.48.
i bought my touring , which is a better speced mtech, for £1200 with 80000 miles on the clock , leather interior,lsd, electrics ,years mot etc and no rust issues, not 1 single bubble and completely solid arches etc.
you could build one cheaper if you do it yourself and you can choose the specific car for yourself as a base to start with.

cheers for the replies have been and seen the car tonight it is a nice looking car and looks like it as been put together well, the bodywork could do with a bit of tidying up, but other than that it was a very clean straight motor, it also drove surprisingly smooth although it didn't seem amazingly fast, the only thing that lets it down is it comes with no paper work what so ever and it never jumped out at me and said buy it.
