I'll keep you posted Keith thanks for all the support guys will be checking all the usual places and hopefully it will be better than the rough ones I went to see.

Came across this on ebay - was listed obscurely under parts and accessories. Would need a bit of work mind…….

I'm gonna say this poor thing is an entry into the 'likely scrappers' file. Wish they'd tag 'em with the reg number.

That glass top will push the ££££'s up a bit. Unless it sells off the car. Expect a black/red/green/blue/silver or white tin lid when bidders get there.....

is there still any demand for glass roof panels these days..... seems most people who wanted one have got one now..... the heady days of them changing hands for 300 quid seem long gone.
What colour do you reckon this car was originally.... white?

Well it looks beige underneath the maroon Ian. But we know that colour was not a Series 3 option.
So either it's come into UK from elsewhere or it's a two times respray.......?????

It would be nice to have one.. But I'm not going to spend that on one aye :(. I haven't noticed anybody going out of the way to get one for a while though.

I was very lucky. Cliff in the Wirral spotted mine in a wreckers in Nantwich going for £60.
He tipped me off and when I rang to buy it the wrecker man had worked out it was worth more.......give him his due though.....following the wreckers code of honesty he stuck to his price.

Nah, before you'se all chokes, there is no wreckers code.....he was just an honest guy.

That's an unusual body kit.

Single seat in it. possibly a rallycross car ?

Anyone know more ?
