Follow an inspection etc by Peter Morgan's service and subsequent test drive and negotiation, I drove this back from London yesterday:



Sod's law being what it is, as I had to put the hard-top on to transport it the sun shone all the way. Still was a good chance to get familiar with the car. It's a Tip - and before anyone questions that - I'm "old" smile So far I like it a lot, but only time will tell...

It's driving me nuts - I'm sat in a meeting in Birmingham looking at glorious sunshine outside and the car is at home!

Looks lovely - and just the right time to get that roof off!

Enjoy your new toy - I guess you're waiting to get out there and play!

I can tell you it's too hot in Birmingham for the roof to be down; I even had to close my sunroof and whack the AC up! Boy, the tyres do not half stick in this weather! hehe

Well, I got back from Birmngham and took the hard-top off. I then took my wife for her first ride in it - with the lid down. She said she liked the car - phew... I'm a happy man smile

Lovely car sir, great work. Out of curiosity, where'd you pick it up from?

Top bloke Peter Morgan, saved me going ahead on a 997 C2s a couple of years ago.

Never actually met him face to face all over the phone but great service and what he does not know is not worth knowing.
