Hard Top for Spider S3

Greetings one and all!

My car is a 1986 Spider S3 Quadrifolglio, rosso red (the red ones are faster).

I believe that as a cloverleaf model - she would have come with a hard top as standard. Unfortunately she doesn't have one now...

Can anyone point me in right direction to sourcing one? It's not that I intend to take it out in the rain, I just need it for the British Summer.

(For those of you who aren't aware - summer in England was on 23rd August this year - hope everyone enjoyed it).


Looking forward to plenty of replies from you helpful dudes.

Tootle pip.

They come up occasionally on eBay. I think Richard at www.classicalfa.com had one for sale recently.

Thanks Cosmo,

Had a look at your beautiful looking Spider.

Can I be rude and ask where I may be able to obtain a smaller front number plate - similar to yours?

I realise there may be some "legal issues"

Sure, I got mine from www.framptons.net - good product, great service.

What's the problem? They aren't sold as number plates, it's a just a sign

I've found one in what appears to be fairly good condition: £500

This was more than I thought it should be - what do you think?

I reckon that's very top end of the market. It should be A1 spotless for that kind of money. Does it include a huge delivery fee?

No - I would have to go fetch it.

From the photos, it's not A1 spotless - and it's not as if it's just around the corner for me to go and check it out!

i got mine off ebay 2 years ago, for £101. only thing was it was green and my car is red..

I would be made up if I could find one at that price! Can't have cost much to respray!

Found another one @£500, from an S4.

I'm correct in thinking that an S4 hard top won't fit an S3, aren't I ?
