Well spring time is here and this year decided to get this beast in immaculate condition. It's Been kinda ignored the past few years what with house moves, kids and new cars. It's had 3 owners from new and from new, this 32 year old car has only done 17,000 miles. Going to do an unleaded conversion, new hood and new drivers seat cause got a slight hole in this. Will soon be minted. Love convertibles:) believe this had a detuned version of the old Mini Cooper S engine.

Ian who? Would be interested to see that! Yeah it's in good nick! Been in a garage for over a year pretty much. The hood is getting replaced along with the front seat as has a hole in it. Apart from that give it a service and see where we go from there!

Yeah I bought a pageant blue 1980 midget 1500 early last year to tidy up. Had a couple good runs out with the roof down before I sold it.
