Lol... I actually spoke to that guy too. He doesnt have a buy it now price for the car... And I'm not to confident to buy without viewing a car. Im keeping it on my radar at the moment.

I know Doggo... Im really looking forward to my first drive in a lude for years. I hope i can find the right one first.

Thanks for the links Drax... I haven't looked on Gumtree since a couple of local guys were robbed at gunpoint when going to view a car that was advertised there... :shock:

1st one I would steer clear of. 2nd one is H22A5 and seems alright but IMO overpriced. 3rd one is a JDM.

Welcome to LG :Hello:

There isn't a lot of choice out there at the moment. Out of all the above links, the black lude does look the best option. Although the only thing "motegi" about it is the wheels :roll: the white 1 does look nice but I would be concerned about the broken Speedo and if he's hiding anything else. The silver LPG lude used to belong to a forum member, and as already said, its JDM.

It's a shame JDM isn't an option for you because the black type S on here is a good buy ;)


Good luck with your search dude 8-)

I know Mills, it is a shame. My friend and business partner reiterated that it was UK cars only when we were taking out the insurance... He even went as far as saying "that means no Type S"... but i was adamant at the time, that i wouldnt be tempted back into a lude.

Agree the black one on ebay is the best option for me from the links above... Im monitoring it while keeping my eyes open... ;)

It is a shame because at the end of the day the difference between UK and JDM ludes is minimal :roll: I think I'm 1 of the lucky 1's as it didn't cost me anything extra when changing from a UK to a JDM lude :? :lol:

I know... If it was going to be private insurance on the car, I wouldn't mind if it was a bit more for a Type S. The current situation is a bit of a bummer!

It pleases me, in a "tickle my 8-bit button" kind of way.
