Hi people!
I bought myself a cabriolet cheap on Ebay at the end of the Summer. OK, the beginning of Winter (November) and it's looking like a nice project.
1999 2.0 16v SE with 120k, full leather interior, leaky rad, clogged heater matrix, worn rear suspension bushes, all the usual suspects!
But the hood works, the wipers work, it starts and runs well and I've got some warm boots, so by next Summer I'm hoping to have it in much better nick.
Bought a new zip-in rear window which came from Germany and I'm still translating the instructions!
Looking forward to meeting people on here, learning a bit more about the old beast. Incidentally, it's purple and there's no colour code on the driver's door edge, just the tyre details. Anyone know what the name/code is?

think the paint code is on the near side front suspension strut, look under the bonnet and it should be on a white sticker if I remember correctly.
