Default Where are all the decent series two's gone?

Been looking for about a month now, have cash to spend and no joy!

I'm after a standardish nice car, not a showcar minter or anything.

There either 200 BHP monsters or a collection of rust connected to 4 wheels!

I'll just have to keep looking........

Rant over lol

Just keep looking m8, mine was standard when I bought it and in pretty much mint condition. I did view a few rotters first tho.

Not many there aint...

Even the expensive ones are going rusty or have been restored with fibreglass filler.

Ive always loved escort turbos ive owned 10 but nowdays all i see is smokey rust boxes.

What have you got to spend?
