Should I buy a hardtop?

[Rob13]

Theres an immaculate one near me, right colour, right age for £500. I was thinking of selling the 5 but with the prices I was offered, I am thinking of hanging onto it. It is a bit small, and in the winter, the soft-top rarely comes out (boring slog to work & back) so was thinking of having the coupe option in the winter and the convertible in the summer.

What you reckon? Waste of money or worth every penny?

Will it make the cabin quieter?

I was gonna barter him down to £400. Ive seen some tatty ones go for £200 but then to get it sprayed anyway is another £200
