[Mustang virgin]

Good evening all

I hope you can help with some advice on buying a Ford Mustang for my brother. 

Its his birthday ...big 40 and my sister In law wants to get him a mustang....we are both out of our depths here.

All we know is that he loves mustangs....and that he deserves a treat as he works extremely hard!!! Preferably Shelby old classic like 60's....all out of our budget...so What would you recommend for a budget of 5000-7500. The only one we found at a local dealer is a white Saleen 1987...@£6500 but we don't know how genuine it is and whether the price is right...it certainly sounds powerful when turned on.

Then of course comes the paperwork as its not registered in UK plus insurance etc. what should we know in order to not get tricked or loose money...

looking forward to read your ideas....

buying a 60 mustang is difficult in the country and the only place to buy from is specialists or classic car clubs, buying from a dealer is a strong push....

 

it also depends how much you want to give him in the form of work to do, the more complete the car, the bigger the cost!

Has anyone seen this...Euro NCAP Crash Testing.   The 2017 Mustang has performed incredibly poorly.  Shocking results for a major manufacturer.
