Holy Crap !! I didnt read the ad that well... yeh not worth that at all.

I was hoping for a 5K bargain. Would freshen up the engine,give her a good polish (as per Rob Rojo's thread), paint the lip red, install HIDs and enjoy the car till it dies (or till i kill it hehe)

I dont agree, red dosn't do it for me. And if you want a car thats going to fade really quickly, then buy yourself a red one.

Thanks mate
But yeah it does fade very quickly but there is a lot of different paint sealers out there that claim to stop that.

Anyway Red goes Faster!

Well it will in a few weeks.

Red does oxodise quickly, but it helps if you keep the car garaged, and a good coat of wax of course.

Thats a nice soarer!

If you really wanted a sunroof, you can always go aftermarket.

Sunroofs are awesome.
My Starlet doesnt have one and it makes me sad
In my old Soarer i would always have it either just tipped up or all the way open. Its the only way to roll.

Plus we actually get some decent weather up here in Brissy.

I don't get people who say this. We have the highest rate of skin cancer, but we also have one of the leading rates of vitamin D deficiency.

Its a cultural thing, not so much an atmospheric thing.

when you have the sun shinning down at you at 1pm on a 35 degree + day, then youll know why people say its useless to have it. anyway people go out into the sun, get skin cancer, their friends relatives stop going out into the sun and get vitamin d deficiency. the doctor tells them to get more sun, they go out and get skin cancer..so goes the cycle lol :p

Stink! There must be an after market cover you can put on somehow? Maybe something with velcro or rubber suckers? I love my sunroof, but agree it would be a pain in the arse without the cover to keep the sun out!
