If anyone is interested in the UK.

Estimate £15,000 - £18,000.

Looks to be in good condition.

Looks nice.  It seems that the PR (UK/Federal) suffix cars aren’t so rare after all! That’s the third one I’ve noticed this year.

Is it my imagination but does it have the single piece side windows? I quite like the clean lines. Is it an easy conversion to do?

Regards,

Peter

Type 47 Perspex windows by the look of it, or similar. The catches are there but the windows not fitted in the pics.  No external door handles either, nice and clean lines.

Banks makes them and a few others sell his windows as well (Kelvedon for one).  Banks also sells hinge/latch kits.  I mounted mine with screws and then trimmed them with chrome strips for an early S1 look.  I didn't need the extra ventilation "suction" opening windows would provide as with it would come wind noise.

Thanks for the info. I’ll ask further on the topic in the garage section rather than hijack this thread.
