Looking for a Manual BB8

Hi all,
Finally decided it's time to make the move from my BB9 to a BB8 (contemplated converting mine over but I want the 4WS and cruise control so it'd mean rebuilding most of the car).
Car must be a manual as we already have an Auto in the family! Also looking for a blue one as respraying the car is a but too much work for me to do myself.
Otherwise I'm flexible on condition, happy to take a project on as long as I can get it home.
There is one currently on Ebay that I've been having a nose at but it doesn't have an MOT and being under 25 test driving cars is horrendously awkward, plus the guy wants a bit too much for it
If anyone knows of or sees any cars about then please let me know!

Yes definitely please! Was hoping for a blue one but for the right car I can compromise

Where is it? May be a forum member who can help?

I was supposed to go and see it in Swindon the day after I put this up but it was sold the same day sadly!
It went for a bit more than I was willing to pay for it though ultimately - £1500 and no MOT, only one key, partial service history and a slight bubbling on the arches. Apart from that it looked really nice!

I have a 5g that's probably for sale, I doubt you'll get better at the price; PM me for details.

Just went to bump this and realised I never saw this post

Is the car still for sale?
Still looking!

Cheers Nitin, this one was for sale about ten miles from me last year if it's the one I think it is. Stayed away because the seller was very unusual but obviously hasn't fallen apart yet so worth a look!
