Thanks everyone :-)
I would love to know more about them and what to look out for as regards to weak points etc.
I will only buy the one I consider to be the right one and will then be spending the money on it to get it the way I want it.
Anyone here from Hampshire / Surrey?
Dan

hi Goose. this pops to mind  you have come to the right place for information thats for sure. we can just about answer any question on the mps as most things have been discussed on here. Is there not a member currently selling a 6 mps. might be the one for you. could be wrong though but im sure theres some one selling one.

Welcome, you are right to wait for the right one but you may have to travel. They are very rare.

Yeah, is there somewhere on here I can look at info for the 6 MPS? As in how many were made, colour choices, options available at the time etc so I can get a good overview of what to look for. I certainly don't mind travelling for the right one, I'm originally from the north east and have mates all over the place so I can always kill two birds with one stone so to speak. Goose

I would agree the mk1 3`s are more stealthy than the 6. Takes a keen eye to spot a 3MPS.

Goose 3's can be like that too I was put off by the 2wd-ness of the 3 so opted for the 6. Goose
