Next service is due in 7800 miles. Now unfortunately the bad... The car needs a new aircon pressure switch to make the aircon ice-cold again, currently its intermittent. The bodywork is tired and there is lacquer peel on a few areas - pics attached. And the elephant in the room is the OSF strut tower which as you can see from the pics has rusted through completely and needs welding a new patch on it. I've run a CarVertical check and there was damage recorded on it in 2019 (before my ownership) but it wasnt written off. No further details unfortunately. Whilst the car has a clean MOT I also know its not safe to drive so very reluctantly it is for spares / repairs. Everything listed above works perfectly (bar the intermittent aircon!) and it would be a crying shame to scrap it, so I'm hopeful that someone with more talent than me can weld the strut tower back together and have a cheap but immensely fun convertible. Currently the car is on my own plate but this will be changed back to the original plate of YE09XYW shortly. Please, no tyre kickers, no low ball 10 offers etc... the car is decent, but needs some love given back to it (and a strut tower repaired)
