Robbie, I've just been out to look at mine. I still think the svelteness is being lost
as the width increases, particularly at the rear. There are those who prefer the narrow winged cars I know, but for me I think the plus four of the late eighties /early nineties seemed about right. So I think I'll concentrate on improvements and keep the car that I have come to like so much - maybe the new engine, gearbox, and axle from the roadster later on if it can be made to fit. Obviously there is a lot of potential left in the traditional shape but one wonders whether the gamble of a completely new shape might be worth it. Meabh.
