Car was restored from 1999-2001. Has 12 months MOT and 6 months Tax. I have been using it as my daily driver since then and it's never let me down. The leMans top gives it drivability over the winter and autumn months when most spits hide. That, combined with winter servicing makes this an all round possibility and certainly get's the looks whatever time of year.

I never thought I'd sell this car but my circumstances have forced it upon me. Get it for the summer, rag the hell out of it and then love it in the winter.

Main cosmetic detail is the seats recovering. I've been quotes £350 for the pair in matching portland grey leather.

Car is in Oxford.

VEry nice car Matt. First time I've seen one of those hardtops fitted - actually looks pretty good.

Would be tempted, but I think 1 Spit is enough for now.

My thoughts exactly!

Where was this car when I was looking for a new ride earlier this year :-( Very nice Matt.

She who must be obeyed says - don't even think about it !!

Thanks guys, very much appreciated. I used to be a regular with this group but a new job forced me away. It is a real shame that I have to sell it. I've been looking at every conceivable way to keep it but without garage/storage as well as the need to drive many more miles, it has to go.

The Hardtop itself I might sell separately though I know that anyone interested in the car is likely to want it. Without it I fear it's only the leather interior that makes it stand out from the rest.

Matt,

I have a blue Spit 1500 yes (Pageant Blue), but it's on a T plate...
