As a general rule, UK spec = rusty shitter with cibbies and superlights and cb aerial that has been diffed to within an inch of its life...
Jap = usually fairly non rusty and well sorted

Agreed... Originally Posted by sc86

Take that shitbox "pink panther" for example..

under 4k for a cam with nct and good running gear wasnt to bad but i know its hard to understand for some lads not into them, trust me a 4k japper will be rough aswell...
some people prefer the look of uk cars plus uk parts like interiors are worth double what a jap is worth
id prefer a slightly rough uk car with nct and good running gear over a average jap for same money
neither will be minters but il have more fun in the uk car and enjoy it more
