Afraid it’s a case of getting out and going to view cars you find.
It’s the only way you will know what you are buying.
Do you want a close to stock car, or are you looking for modified?
Your budget is lower end for a tt. But dosent mean you can’t get a good one. You just might have to view a lot before you find an absolute bargain.
This members car was put up for sale the other week.
Have a read of the thread.
With these mods it seems a real steal, a few bits to do. If you don’t mind getting your hands dirty you can do bits yourself with advise and how to posts for full members on the forum.
But again go and have a look.
Purchasing full membership will open all technical areas and would be a real help to know how involved each fix would be on your potential new purchase.
It opens up so much more in the forum, and would be my first purchase.
Good luck finding the right car for you.
