Nowt to do with me, would probably weigh a bit less without the 'additions'...

...thats the one that was in Rugby a few months back.

Wonder what the spoiler is off??

[manifold]

I dont know but its not my bag. I'd be ripping that off in an instant lol. I'm currently working on an idea for a bespoke item for my convertible in the form of a little lip type spoiler. Just enough to break the line.

....But as they say beauty is in the eyes of the beholder though.

No idea about the spoiler, not my 'thang' either. It does seem to be attracting the bids though, makes me feel a little less futile in the money that's been thrown at mine.

too much of a big flip as we call them would prefer something like what the old cavalier sri had
rubber subtle thing on the boot

Concerning value it's interesting that the Gold Convertible is now mentioned in a classic car yearbook in Holland that is used by many insurers. A top notch Convertible should be worth 7000 euro nowadays. The Gold coupe in first class condition 14000 euro! It is unlikely that such figures are paid, but if someone has invested a lot of money in his car, at least it's not all lost.
One day even in England I expect reasonable prices again. Anyway not many car owners can claim that their car has F1 style undertrays, developed by Gordon Murray in the Brabham windtunnel.

Hmmm, questionable taste with the spoiler. For those asking what it's off, it looks like a shortened scooby impreza jobbie. The Scooby is the only car I can think of that has a spoiler which 'turns in' at the base

I see he's ended the listing early. I hope for his sake the buyer comes up with the goods, my recent experiences of selling cars through Ebay have been a nightmare.
