Introduce myself - Looking for UK 3000GT

Hello,

I am returning after a decade of no ownership. I had a 93 UK 3000GT in Red unfortunately it was written off (not due to my driving). I am Devon based.

I am now at the stage where I am reminiscing about this car and would like to start the search again. I am in no rush and also appreciate I may not find what I am looking for anymore.

Happy to hear opinions on my chances of finding this spec of car. Happy to do some small restoration where needed.

Had some great help from Rob@evil empire back in the day as well so great to know he is still out there.

Anyway back to Autotrader!

There’s plenty on Facebook marketplace just depends on your budget

Same as above, all depends on your budget and how much work you’re looking to have to do !

I have a project which has been sat for quite some time because of life getting in the way which could be for sale at the right price, but wouldnt br cheap due to the ammount of work done as spares that come with it (big resto project)

You just looking for a mk1?

Thank you for the replies. I have made a purchase and in a weird turn of events I have bought my old car. I will let the seller make themselves known if they want to.

Turns out the car was sorn and not written off after I sold it.

There is a lot of work to do and it will be a very long term project for myself and my son. The car has been sat for a long while and appears to have rust on the sills but other than that looks ok.

I know you all like photos so here are a few. Although I wont be documenting the journey of repair (or not) the updates some of you bring to this site are going to be both inspiring and educational for me.

That’s almost a dream coming true…well done bringing the car back home. Yep, you’ll spend a few £, but these cars still steel the show.
Good luck with your renovation work.
