Purple two door P6?

I was looking at that earlier it's an odd beast but I cant help thinking I've seen it before only it was bright red at the time
 
This thing has graced Ebay loads of times in the last 12 mths. Seems someone either can't sell it, or buyers keep trying to offload it.. :?
 
Didn't hit reserve at £1000
The car has been around quite a while, there's a photo of it in our Gallery, which has been there for probably 8 years or more.
Bit of an aquired taste, and probably not easy to insure, (mine never was). Lack of a roof is a serious limitation in this country.
 
This car is based round the corner from my house, i used to go to school with the blokes son. Not for my liking, but if it had a fold up roof, that would be a different storey......
 
This has been on ebay several times - What I can't understand is why they don't get the V5? That would make it much more saleable?
 
Indeed I wonder why not. I updated the info for my old Convertible so it said 2 door.... on the V5, not dificult, and they never asked any questions, same when I changed the engine, registered the new number on the V5, you need to be as legit as possible these days.

I would say the roof is the most important consideration in any of these conversions, a good / bad soft top can make or break it really. I had no roof at all for about 5 years with mine, only used on sunny days and carried a tarpaulin just in case. I later had to make a soft top when I had to use the car as the daily driver, but it was pretty ugly to say the least and not a 2 minute job to take down / put up.

That's one of the reasons I'm considering keeping my car a coupe rather than a convertible, until I'm sure I've got a perfect soft top solution. (Preferably powered too !)
