I took an ebay punt on it for half the normal price these go for but was outbid at the last second. I wasn't really that bothered as the winning bid had tipped it over the "bargain" status for me, but the winner of the auction pulled out and the seller offered it to me for my original bid.

I've only done a couple of short trips in it so far but it's in far better condition than I expected. It's got 275k km on the clock (not so unusual in Oz but quite massive for the UK) so is far from fresh but the drivetrain seems sweet.
It's a hell of a leap going from an aggressively setup MX-5 to a vague, wobbly 4WD but I love it so far and after enjoying our off-roading in Oz, we fully intend to get it muddy over here asap

I think it helps to balance out the girly/manly balance of my driveway too
