Why not go the Japanese route Mike? Hook up with idirect.co.jp. Stuff like Starlet Turbos, MX-5's and more unusual stuff like Honda Beats will make a handy few quid. (Actually the Beats mightn't have a huge profit margin)

EG....you'll get a nice 95 Starlet GT for about 1500, plus 12% duty, 21% Vat, and around 350 VRT.
So all set for 2500, easy enough to sell it on for 3500. If you can be bothered with paperwork and NCT-ing its the way to go.
