But you get the jist. No shortage of W451 Cabrios about for sale.

And of course it has a desired soft top, in none marking black as well. Unlike my beige one which is hard to keep clean.

Talking to a mechanic in Tesco earlier this evening, he said it looks OK and it's had a new cam-belt which is a big plus. He's only 25 and said he likes the colour, but wouldn't drive it in case one of his mates saw him and took the pee! The owner of the retro clothing shop I work in said today that he loves the colour and would happily drive it!! The mechanic said I should offer the seller £3,000 for it and see what he says.🤔

Was his name Stevie Wonder? It looks gopping!

Then there's the customer in the above shop who's ex wife is selling her convertible Ford StreetKa for £2,000. He said he doesn't know how old it is, but he does know it has a full MOT and is in very good condition, with a full service history.

Is it me, but surely your not contemplating changing your car for one that's a dreadful colour, & older than your current car?

Are you on about the pink Fiat 500? If so, yes!😬

Surely you must want something newer, it seems daft to me, especially as the colour devalues that pink Fiat horrifically

What's wrong with a pink car? There was guy around where I grew up who owned a pink Porsche 924.

Mind you, everyone thought he was a few sandwiches short of picnic.

Yes, no?🤔 It's in not too far away in Keighley West Yorkshire as well.

I've just watched a video of one.
The narrator said if you want a 'best example of one' you need to spend about 5 to 6 thousand pounds. This is one of the best I presume!

In British racing green and much nicer beige leather seats, dash, and door panels than the cheaper grey plastic interior of the above white one.

I looked them up earlier. I know I posted about one, must be eight years ago last August as I have a good memory for trivial things. I was/were after one at the time, but was told on CC they have rust problems. After reading about them, I think I'll give that car I mentioned a miss. Plus the bloke who's ex wife is selling it said it comes with a hard top that can be fitted for the winter months. Now how would I store that in the spring, summer and autumn months?🤔 😉
