Good News Everybody.....
We now have a genuine convertible. Its not perfect by any stretch of the imagination, however it is extremely solid and the previous owners spent £2300 last year on replacing the sills and front floor plan. And even better it is a very early 1098 with "normal wipers" with a gold faced speedo and the starter pull..... all the servicing and MOT's have been done at ESM while they have had the car. Both front seats are new, and the passenger one is a folding one
However, it needs a new rear wing (its bent), a bootlid, both doors(rusty) and the bonnet support bar thing has come away in one place. (and the engine is a horrible green) Anyway here it is:

I have offered £2500 so long as they put a new MOT on it, and they have agreed! yey!

Fogot to mention, it drives very well, and the front suspension has been recently overhauled too!
