Rover coupes????
 
Dunno if I asked but what the watch out points for one of these and how do you get a targa top off is it 2 sec job or a 10 min

Main thing to watch for is the standard HGF if it is a K series.

I guess the targa tops are a 2 second jobbie, it is for the whole roof on an F, much quicker than an electric hood.

Just looking at a couple that have had belts and gaskets done

And to be honest if I can get the roof off once in summer it's all good

I work for aviva and I am getting something ridiculous like 75% discount off what it was ment to be sp would have been about ?2100 a year and I see a nice red one no rust belt and gasket done half leather interior 100k less that 650 so might be a very easy phone call just needs taxed tho
