Hello everyone.!
My name is Ivo and im 18 years old. At the moment I'm working to save up some money. Ill soon have my driving license but I understood that I wont be able to get my own nissan before summer ends with my current pay check, if Ill search in my know resources at my country. So I decided to try to find it online and ask for guys that drive my type of cars and know people that like them as well. I'm getting ~300 Euros per month so Ill have ~600 when summer ends. As I know that It would be kinda stupid to ask for complite car for that price so Im considering to buy two salvage cars and kinda make one good out of those two. And yea, Im not mechanic or something like that. But I'm willing to learn and work for it because I realy love sx's. And I could get some help from few people I know.
So yea, I know that Ill get alot of hate like "another kid dreaming" or what ever. And yea, I'm dreaming, but im willing to work for my dream. I dont need anything fancy. Ill start with what I can get. So you can keep those coments to your selfe.
All I'm asking is help to find what I need to get my nissan.
So a little info:
I live in Riga, Latvia. But I'm willing to go to outside of Latvia, if its worth it. Because I realy love nissan's. While others dream for bugaty, jaguar, ferrari and what not - I dream about my own special 240sx s13.
But, if thats too hard, then I would be okay with s14a or sileighty. But my plans are mostly for s13.
Price is 600 euros or 700. I might get a bit more. If its salvage, then thats on both cars. Because thats all Ill get before summer ends.

If its an private seller that likes his car, then I can say that I would take a realy good care for the car. Especialy if its s13 because thats my absolute favorite car. Idk why but I have loved it ever since I saw it. I wouldnt save money on my dream car that I love so much. While yea, It seems like I want everything for cheap - its not. Its just that I want to get my car before summer ends. Other than that I would give atleast 150 euros on car each month. And thats not counting fuel.

So please, please help me get my own nissan. Find your inner kids that were searching for their own first car or first nissan.

Anyhow, thanks for your time reading this.
-Ivo.

Dude that was inspiring. Anything worth having is worth working for. To be honest ive never even heard of that country but im stoked to hear there are 240 fans there. Let me give you a little advice. Dont jump on the forst deal you find unless its just absolutely amazing. Weigh the pros and cons of each car you find. I use a simple strategy for buying any car im 23 and have owned 18+ cars 5 being s13s and I call it a trilogy method. Never buy a car with more then one thing wrong with it for a daily driver. 1.exterior 2 interior 3 mechanics. It will usually cost more then its worth to fic to how you want it. Try it out its never let me down. GOOD LUCK BROTHA!

Just a quick question..
What would be the best place to search for 240sx s13? Steering wheel on the left side.
By best I mean that has alot of thees cars or for best price or both. World wide or atleast Latvia included in the shipping list.

I know Germany has a pretty big following...but I THINK Moscow would probably be closer. watch out for rust tho...
