As title really, the time has come i think to get rid of the saph, bt i am just wondering if a car with not all original panels devalues it? my cossie had all original panels whn i bought it, but due to the wheel theft thing my front wing had to be replaced so wasnt sure if this affects value. I would have thought overall condition on a 20yr old car was more important but wanted to get some other opinions, otherwise the car is sound and only has 4 previous owners and 90k on the clock

it affects the more concours cars imo...a good useable car in very good condition with a few non gen panels is fine if you ask me...as long as everything lines up right

I personally would be wary of a car of this age if everything was original.
My idea is rust will get there at some time, so if panles etc have been replaced, PROPERLY, then that is more incentive to me to buy it.

gra makes no difference aslong as the price of the car is right
the amount of non recorded crashed damaged cossies on the road is silly
my cossie had TWO new rear quarters and back panel due to a crash and wasnt on hpi,, the only way you could tell was the pant wasnt as yellow as the roof was
dont worry about it imo
why you selling up anyway,,, you not into the car anymore or you realised that its not what you remember it as

buy a motorhome mate,,,, seriously sounds like im taking the piss but you can jump in and drive ANYWHERE !!!
places like france/spain ect too
the missus old man owns one and im thinking about borrowing it for a week as a driving holiday with my family in europe
i know what you mean about the fun part,,, though i think the scene has changed a little as i remember more people going shows, remember the R/R days we ALL attended with the new cars and people just showing up for the crack ect
think the game needs a kick up the arse to get it back where it was
though ive noticed we now have piss-up's which are fun

Personally I think if the panels are will fitted and lined up properly then it would not put me off unless it was a low mileage original car for compotition use etc.
As for being in your 30's and driving an RS - who gives a flying fook, if you like it and it puts a smile on your face then
