    • Pictures taken of the coupe underneath are mainly from 2012 when I gave it a semi restoration and clean but haven't had the chance to picture it on a ramp since then

      but having replaced lots of old parts over the last 8 years I hope its in just as good condition as in the old pictures.

                          Cheers, It doesn't look much different to 2012 so am pleased to some extent . Should look better when new parts are fitted and back together.

                            • 7 miles???
                              Interested to know why.... is it just an investment for you?
                              For me cars are to be enjoyed - I've done 1200 miles since purchase in Feb - and it would have done a lot more if not for Covid! I have it insured on 14,000 miles per year...

                                Not been well so haven't been able to get the car out but luckily I enjoy the coupe even when its sat in the garage. I have a limited mileage policy which is 3000 per annum but usually do around 1000 which is normally made up of travelling the country going to car shows.

                                I have had this car for over 20 years and did around 1000 miles a month when I first bought it. Not bought as an investment and I have spent tens of thousands looking after it so even with a high sale price I would never get anywhere near my money back.
