A standard R32 is a nice thing IMO. This sounds like it probably looks a bit daft, but I'd still take it without a second thought!

What a great name for a garage! :P

I too would have no hesitation in swapping a Lambo-wanabbe 320i for something a little closer to the Lambo on performance (assuming it's a kosher car, of course).

Yep!

Clearly the skyline 'owner' is either completely insane or off his tits on some good stuff.. (Or a very convincing wind up merchant)

Fibreglass e30 or built 'liner.. Hmm let me think :mad:

I think i smell a bit of bully the skyline has got too be 3k plus car depending on what shape she is in. If the E30 is that thing with the door's and kit in the op aviator then that has got to be other around £80 scrap. I think maybe there is no skyline, no swap and maybe lots of dreaming.

a skyline with a recent rebuilt engine capable of 10 second quarters wont be £3000.
