I know they're not common in the UK, just wonder if they're a frequent sight in their native area! I've just checked a Japanese carfinder website and there are 24 x March Cabrios for sale in Japan at the moment. In comparison, there are over 3,500 x March hatchbacks listed. The site also lists 3 x Mitsuoka Viewt Cabrios for sale at between GBP4,000-6,000. In central Tokyo at least, you don't tend to find many older domestic models as they tend to get traded for new after the first or second shaken (comprehensive MOT at 3 years and then every 2 years thereafter).

Any idea what it is?  not got a clue but i like it! I would say that it's a VW Variant Fastback, that's beeen chopped, and then chopped a little more.  Not the best of pictures, but I chose this one as you can see the 3 vents towards the rear, and the tail lights...which are the 2 clues that show it's a Variant.

Well worth a trip there by the looks of it, Suprised Shmee has not taken his video camera there yet. Well done Andy for getting Vol 4 off to such a great start! Love seeing these kind of post with a great mixture of super, rare and super rare.

Trying to add something interesting to the thread, I saw this yesterday at the Jumeirah hotel in Knightsbridge. Ford GT 1000RE, so it has 1000hp. The turbos were stupidly loud.

More soon, Andy Sorry but this looks epic!  I know the fronts are awful, but I love it! O/T slightly, but do you happen to see many March Cabriolets, Andy? I know they're not common in the UK, just wonder if they're a frequent sight in their native area! there's certainly a few in Malta, usually pinky metallic with tan roof.

Spent a fortnight on the Costa Blanca - a disappointing amount of exotica on show it has to be said, although I did find some:  A stunning S1 Elise:  And probably my best spot - a G55 AMG. It was genuine due to the side-exit exhausts  Pretty sure these are very rare.
