I see this on the bay and it will be ideal for how the weather is at the mo that is.
I think its a solar as its got an ellectric fold back roof by the look of it.

well we picked it up got there for 7pm.all was good apart from the quater pannle witch i was aware of.got it drove back either the speedo is way out or its a fast 1.2 because after 10mins of pushing it we got it to 118-120mph lol speedo is fooked if u ask me.but really pleased with how the car is the roof is a bit gay when its open lol.need to lower it and debadge it tho.other than that it should be a nice car to potter around in.
