A few early imports locally to Glasgow .......or you could always hang fire and buy a forum members car. At least then you'll have some idea of any issues and forum members tend (I say TEND) to keep there cars in better condition. Might get a few bits n bobs already done to it also.
By the time you AA check and then travel south, surely thats verging on 2-300 quid, not to mention it might end up a heap o sh8t when you get there.
All depends on your budget and what you want (import/uk/leather/ etc etc).
