advice on what to do
I have the chance to buy my brothers black SVX it has 180k on it and a shagged transmission, the interior is good is what it worth it ? whats a good price for a car with problems, should I go manual? does anyone know what other autos can be used ?

You can get autos for SVX's from the Jap importers for about 1k. Its no big deal to replace. What year model is it will determine price. If it a 92, 93 I won't pay mare then 5k depending on the condiation of the rest.

well its a 92 i think? the paint isnt too bad everything works except the auto but im not sure i want to sink too much into it i dont have the facilities to do much work on it so i'm stuck with paying someone to do it. as much as i like them im thinking it may be beyond my budget

Over here, NZ$5K would be with a serviceable transmission. As is say $2k.
