I love the car to bits and the attention it brings is amazing.
Problem is i just cannot get used to the "harshness" of the ride.
I use it mostly for driving to work and back and the roads along the way are in a terrible condition.
I know this is going to sound stupid but i find myself getting stressed out driving it, its hard work.
I would love to be in a position where i could keep it and just use it in the summer, along country lanes etc.
Thanks for the comments.
The car has been very, very well maintained inside and out.
The only downside being the stone chips on the bonnet and front/rear arches are quite bad (but i am quite fussy).

If you bought some speedlines you could easily run 205/45's on those... the difference in comfort would be quite considerable...
just a thought... i know where your coming from... sometimes the ride stifness just isn't wanted... i agree it's great fun in the summer but just bloody annoying in the winter...

A quick sale is not that important really and i don't really expect it to sell now being so close to christmas.
I have based my price bearing in mind the higher mileage and also the stone chipped bonnet and arches (although not excessive).
I have looked at other FRP that are currently for sale and priced it what i consider is a very attractive price for a car as well maintained as this.
i would need another car to to be honest i would prefer a straight swap for any of the cars on my list
