Yes, yes you should.
Lol! Well, it had to be said asking that on the forum about them But can't add much to what the other guys have said already, just make sure you can afford the running costs i.e. petrol and insurance really. Give Adrian Flux a try, mines on the modified policy and is competitive. Waiting till 30 to get a quote from Peter Best on a classic policy, so sitting tight at the moment lol!

I'm ok on running costs and insurance because it will be our second car, for the TF it only goes out on dry days and I covered about 1000 miles in it since last July. It's been Autoglym cleaned and polished and stored in my garage waiting for the dry sunny days. The TF is solar red with tan and black interior and is the better 160bhp version. its covered just 23k miles from new with service history. Taxed to Sept mot to June. Body work is excellent and alloys are good, although I was going to get them refurbished. I also have a new badge waiting to be fitted. It's top class. Open to offers......
Oh and I live near Stansted Airport.
What sort of price are you looking for Nigel?

Well I think the price of TFs is pretty broad at the moment, I've seen some at £1500 others at £4000! I bought it from a small garage in Cambridgeshire last June and paid £3500 which was about right for a garage and considering its condition and mileage. Im very fussy about cars and it took a long time to find an unmolested one that has not been smoked in either (no offence to any smokers!). I know I won't get sort of money now, so it's really a case of what people are prepared to pay for it. I would be happy with £3000 or best offer nearest to be honest.
Sorry Nigel, I forget to paste the link to the Cars for Sale photos......
