Saw this on PH and was very tempted. The only thing that put me off was the attitude that seemed to come through from an email I received from the previous owner - first impression but it counts for a lot IMHO. Is it in as good condition as it appears?

Looks like the bonnet just hasn't been closed correctly in the 2nd pic - i.e. it still on the catch. He was probably taking some engine pics and didn't close it properly..............or it was rolled at 100mph and then pieced back together

It looks very similar to the imola orange of my old S2000. It's funny how many keyboard heros would slag it based on internet pictures but then seriously revise their opinion when they see it in the flesh
