Plenty of cheap convertibles around at the moment, what with summer skipping Britain this year for the most part.

Cheers for the comments fellas yeah summers non excistant this year but I'm not in a rush to have her on the road, I want to strip it back abit and check for rot etc then there's a few bits I want painted etc so it might be the start of next year before she's out to play

Looks clean barring the engine bay:d

nothing like roof down motoring, we bought a Saab 93 convertible 3 years ago, been a great car (when the sun shines;))

Looks a nice clean example Ricky ;)
