Not seen that before. :thumbright:
Very cool.
I don't like the way they close the roof much either. And where are all these enthusiasts that sell parts at low prices :?:

Just love it on these programmes where they drive a nice desirable model - i.e. RHD B Cab and then come out with "£10-12K will buy you a solid car" :shock:
A bit like modern car adverts where they say the new XX from £9,995...
(small print at bottom says model shown starts at £25,000!)

apart from the car I thought it was pretty dull, typical Penny Mallorly blandness. Was the Classic Car Club show or whatever off SKY?

Either that or the car has some serious front end body issues!
