S14s are class. Especially this one.

I did bid on one I really quite liked when I was looking for a car. It was turned down on my behalf due to poor condition and I was genuinely gutted.

Turned out it was a bit rusty underneath. Here it would be considered mint but it wasn't to be.🤷🏻‍♂️

You were better off. If there is some rust in visible areas then there will be more hidden away. You don't want to go to all the effort of bringing it over. Light body damage, even a non-runner, sure, if you have the spare bits and the price is right. Rust in shell or chassis, walk away.

Well that's it. That's what I ended up with. My wee Silvia is spotless underneath but needed quite a bit to get running and still needs a full respray. I don't regret it at all. It was a PS13 I actually wanted.. but that S14 really tempted me for obvious reasons. Exactly how I would want an S14 to look & my R33 wheels would have looked the part on it! lol
