Apart from the mismatch of the respayed rear wing this is really tidy car. Ziebarted from new (Ziebart certifciate still with the docs). Very well looked after - only a couple of spots of surface rust - nothing underneath to worry about - and with ath Webasto roof and Overdrive, I think I paid a fair price. Will pick the car up on Saturday - - its fantastic to be in the Dolomite driving club again - forgotten how much I missed them until I started looking for one again. Hope to get the national with this brown beastie.<br>

No - I looked at all the bills the current owner had paid to bring the car up to scratch - plus what he paid for it - the toatl came to £750 - which is exactly what I was prepared to pay based on looking at price guides and the ads on the club site. So we were both happy

I think it was the brown Webasto that swayed me - it seems to lift the car above beinga poo brown 1500! All the original docs with the car - including the Webasto roof instructions and guarantee. Has the wind deflector in good order too - no cracks or scratches.

Welcome to the board. I think it looks quite fetching! Is it 2 different browns under the bonnet or is that just a poor picture?<br>

Never seen another poo brown hl in Dorchester, wonder where he kept that one hidden.<br>
<br>
OIf you were coming over here you could've had my brown hl auto for 200 quid. OK, so the rear end is bent, it's a bit tatty, the MOT ran out beginning of the month... But other than that it's a bargain <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START ;) --><img src=

<br>
Thinking of breaking her for spares, if you need anything and are willing to drive over to Dorset again let me know - I need to raise cash to fix my 2000, and I can't see anyone buying the car complete <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :( --><img src=
