Summary...
So, what not to like?
Here you have a superbly engineered, quick and agile Lotus '7' type sports car that's a convertible for top-off motoring but has an entirely weatherproof comfy & spacious cabin, cosy heater and a good-size boot for making the Grand Tours.
If you want, buy a full or half soft-top hood and you'll have all options covered. The lockable doors on the hard top give good security for cabin contents when touring.
The reliable, bullet-proof tuned Ford Pinto engine is just another reason why this package is so attractive and a 12 gallon fuel tank is wonderful for peace of mind between 'pit stops'.
Of course. there's a ton of paperwork and information available, two sets of keys and some useful spares and clever bits n' pieces.
If you're tempted to become one of Robin Hood's 'Merry Men (or
ladies)', then please don't hesitate to get in touch. There are more detailed images available on request.
I am retired so if delivery is a problem, I can probably help.
Thanks for looking and keep the wheels turning
ps I have just done a 4 day, 800+ miles road-trip to visit old (and new) friends. The car has performed impeccably and totally reliably... you could drive it to the south of France tomorrow!
