Hi there guys!

I\'m Chris, currently living in Lancs/Yorkshire area.

At the moment I\'m driving a \'92 200SX...

Tomorrow evening though, I\'m off to look at an FC Turbo Convertible. It goes without saying, but I\'m excited!

I\'ve done a quick search, but couldn\'t see a \'what to look out for\' thread.

What advice can you give me. Other than rust :Giggle

Thanks all!

Welcome to the MRC Chris. Being an "FB" and "FE" version owner I\'ll leave it to others to help you out with "FC" queries :D

I do know a member on here, based in the South East, who is about to sell a VERY nice red TII FC Cab...........it won\'t be cheap, but it\'s in excellent condition. I was admiring it last week!

I have yes!

Rusty arches, as per most 20 year old jap cars... But underneath it\'s not too bad.

Engine seems spot on too, didn\'t struggle to idle, warmed up fine, and started fine warm and cold. All the electrics work as they should...

Left a deposit :D

Welcome to the club.

Seen on DW, little bits of rust on arches but mechanically sound. Sounds Like Ali\'s car then!
