Down sides are that it is still not very pretty, I miss the quick steering rack and the paint seems very soft, doesn't chip but does scratch too easily. (And I have already dinged two of the alloys!)

Nearly bought an old Bertone GTV last week but had to resist until the finances recover from Christmas and my holiday a couple of weeks ago. Maybe soon.
