Looks good.. Like the wheels!

If I remember correctly, a new set of EBC Discs are well under £600 for a full set if you're wanting to replace them, but they look ok from the photos, as the guys have said above.

No mention of a hard top?

Get on with it! thumbup

Nice gaps, non standard exhaust, Borla I think, wheels make a difference and do seem to suit the car.

If you buy it then by the roof and ship it with the car the size of the roofs make them expensive to ship. Biff at v-Mania makes a good roof, they do come ups sometimes on the VCA classified or Ebay.

Looks like a well maintained car, and low mileage yes go for it.

Would it be a good idea to ask VCA members in that area if anyone can go and have a look at it? Might cost you a couple of postcards of Tower Bridge, Shakespears Birthplace or a few bars of Cadburys, but could be well worth it.

tis one thing i did...he said if he didn't already have a viper, he'd have bought what became mine smile Get them to take loads of photos and go for a test drive...alternatively, get one of the inspection companies to do the same thing.
