Yep love it, especially in weather like today. It's booked in to centre gravity tomorrow for a full set up but unfortunately finances dictate it will now be sold :(

Still at least it will give me some funds to get the 930 RSR backdate finished

Hi Jon
It looks stunning, I'm a big fan of brightly coloured targas and I really like the interior too.
Got to ask about the door mirror though, is that how it should be/honest mistake/better view or blonde moment?

Not sure what you mean, that's where it lines up with the mounting access holes on the inner frame and having just done 700 miles of mostly motorway driving it was very usable in that position.

Now for sale with Phil [CRYING FACE]

Was received well at the TIPEC show in Beaulieu today though.

Sad to see it go but on to the next....
