...not 4 months after I had to get rid of my S12 due to not having space to sort her cancer, I was forced to move (due to inconsiderate c*nts) and now not only do I have a drive I could have worked on her but a garage too! Now I come to look for one, they all seem to have gone

The hunt begins for S12 number 4!

theres still a good few about. just be patient and you can get a good one.

You might just have to hold out for a little while until the right one comes up,but you will get one.
They do seem to be getting more popular though.

Good job I didn't see that when you posted it - I was in Hurstpierpoint at the time, temptation would have been too much! :P

This, as of tomorrow, is my new "practical" toy:

...and the engine may eventually end up in an S12

5 cylinder Silvia is always the long term plan!

oo thats cheap!

wouldnt put that engine in a 12 though, at 155bhp theres no point.

Straight to RB25 for you

There's also a turbo ver of the Fiat 5cyl with 220BHP std

Will prolly end up with a Volvo B5234T (T5 engine) though as gearbox choice is a bit easier - can use a nice old M5 box with an adapter plate
