Honesty Box….
• Small Crack in rear arch (Behind Turbo Ear) - i’d repaired but it was damaged during the tyre fitting
• Stone chips on front bumper - the car is 20+ year old, i focused on mechanically ensuring the car was up to spec and the bodywork is a sign of its well used time in my 18 years!
• Few marks/ dinks around the car which have been touched up over the years
• She’s done over 107k, paintwork is original

I have some spares and a matching OEM HardTop available separately to the buyer with 1st refusal.

If you got this far, good work!

CheersAfter having a substantial amount of work carried out this year, I’ve decided now is the time to part ways after 17 years.

I’m just not using it enough to warrant keeping it. I know I’ll regret it, I know I should just tuck it away but this time feels like it’s in top condition for a new owner to enjoy.

I still don’t think I like the “look” of a car more, even with it just in the garage I love having it…it’s a real “Head Ruling Heart” moment after all these years.
