200 SX (S14) - About to buy one, any tips?
Discussion
If it's got more than 70-80k check the Turbo very carefully. Regular oil changes throughout it's life are compulsory too.
Touring versions are better value and a manual box makes proper use of the available power.
Careful on roundabouts if it's raining on the test drive!
Plenty around, cheap as chips. Used to own one. Love 'em.

Done it
As you may have guessed Doobs and I are Brothers. We saw a met purple S14 with 58K. It's brakes are knackered (only discs and pads) but we got 650 off the asking so that's that covered.
It's not a touring but it does have air con. I don't think the lack of leather will be a problem, it looks bad when it's old and is too slippy for high G corners. Also the std version doesn't have water collection devices stuck to the sills below the doors, hence the lack of rust on the one we saw.
Enjoy it G, K&N, exhaust and chip next, get that diff doing some work!
I'm a little jelous, my S13 is going to look decidedly tired next to that!
Fancy a go over Macc tops when we get to Whaley world??
