It has black interior it actually back at the dealers at the moment having some work done that was agreed before the sale so hoping it will be even better on its return , i really was only looking the first time i went to see it then the bonnet was opened so clean in there and with only 53000 miles on the clock and a full set of stamps in the service book it was all over ...... Returning home was fun after leaving a deposit .... Yes dear you know that holiday you wanted i have picked you out a lovely seat furious oooops ... still i like decorating nono a small price to pay and she even admitted that she likes it

Nice looking car! smile

Any idea how it ended up with the early door release and number plate mount but with the later style rear lights? Were they a recent upgrade?

Lovely lookinhg car, thought it may have been the one from Sebring. They're a great bunch of guys and Matt especially really knows his stuff.

97 was a crossover year for many of the facelift features. I've seen a few with the newer front end and old door openers. The rear lights would hve been an upgrade, my old Chim was a 97 P plate but had the same quad rear lights, a reasonably expensive job to do as it wasn't simply a bolt off/on task.

Hi Keith

I do remember , no comparison really power delivery i think is very different comfort and ride loads better also i know it shouldnt be said but with the roof up its really quiet and that V8 great sound and not that much worse on fuel , saw a couple of yellow with blue roof and interior not for me .

As far as Sebring go really great bunch i had a couple of faults on the car that it went back in for and have to say Matt really knows his stuff the car runs really well very pleased with it glad i had the S2 first loads of fun and it kind of set the bar for me smile
