£1500 Mercedes ML for ManuaL. 

MOT history suggests it has a prodigious appetite for ball-joints and springs.

A manual ML ? 
that’s got to be rarer than a rare thing in rareville 

I heard a rumour Merc had to de-tune the engine so the manual box could cope

I've been monitoring the price of this for several months now. Snow in the photos suggests it's been for sale for a long time. It's now at a realistic sale price, although it's in mid Scotland which doesn't help.

It's been a while, but it's time for another of my "When I eventually move to Oregon" posts! As always my budget is $10k....

First and foremost, the obligatory Panther Platform car...

This one being a 2001 Mercury Marquis! Love this as seems to be in a very honest condition! Only thing I'm not a fan of is the alloys, but I believe they are factory for the year.

For $3,400 I think it'd definitely be getting bought! https://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/cto/d/warren-2001-mercury-marquis-gs/7373037660.html

Next up is another favorite of mine...

A '94 Eldorado! White on beige for that full on 90's US Luxo feel as well! Would I trust the Norstar V8?

For $4,750 I'd risk it! https://portland.craigslist.org/clk/cto/d/kelso-1994-cadillac-eldorado/7360132125.html

I don't often pick cars with small engines, but this cough my eye...

A 2000 Ford Escort ZX2, in YELLOW! Slightly modded but would be fun for some of the roads up around where I'd be based!

For $4000, thrill over luxury could win me over! https://portland.craigslist.org/clk/cto/d/carrolls-2000-ford-escort-zx2-r/7370712355.html

A friend has one, synchro gone on on 2nd at 80k, not nice to drive either.  The foot operated park brake makes hill starts a challenge, it's also seems to be ultra basic spec. He's tall and seat has no height adjustment etc.

Twelve photos showing the body is rogered, yet not even one of the best bit - that red interior. Missed opportunity!

Interesting to see mk1 prices seem to be creeping up too. It doesn't seem long ago that no-one wanted the saloons.
