with the recent spate of good weather, there's only one way to go through the mot in a 3dr................hardtop off!
Eat your heart out 5dr's and fl2's

You're absolutely right Sir! that one was LH drive (English reg), the MOT testers were gawking at it, they'd never seen one either!! apparently its based on the 2CV

you car might be nice in the summer but being in the uk we do not get much of that, LOL but I bet it is colder in winter and extra demisting required and extra insurance because of the soft top

Strangely the insurance companies class them as hard tops?
Ours is £220 a year, fully comp, for me and the other half.

Nice looking Hippo N.I!, can't wait for a prolonged spell of solid sunshine so I can try mine in topless mode.

Prolonged? I have been topless 3 or 4 times already this year. I just leave the roof on my drive when I am leaving then put it back on when I am home and not going out again ! I am going to devise a roof lifting and lowering device that fits to the celing in my garage to make life easier ( well when I can get my motor more than 3 ft into the garage)

Not a chance!! for the few rays of sunshine we do get....well worth it
Come to think of it..................I always have it off during the MOT,
N.I. style
well I can go with that as last year in Donegal we had 10 days of unbroken sunshine ,it was never heard of before

Yup, fully comp, don't even live in that good an area. Did quite a but of research into getting premiums down. You'd be amazed at the difference your job description makes to the quote. Don't automatically put down what you do, try other descriptions. Like civil servant is better than project manager. So if you are a project manager but work within the civil service put civil servant and save £££££.
No I'm not a project manager! Nowt that fancy.
