Show her a picture of mine and she'll Devorce you :D To be honest, this aint really the best time to be looking for a cab. We'll it is and it isn't at the same time. It is in terms of, it's out of season, just before Christmas, so the price can drop by upto a couple of Ԛ£grand in some cases and that can only be good. It's a bad time cause of the exacts reasons i've just given for the right time to buy one. People hold on to them cause they want to get as much for them as they can nearer summer time. I was looking for a 3rd one myself upto lastweek and i could hardly find one. Even the Autotrader only has a handfull and usually it's full of nice ones. :(

Thanks all for all the comments and advice.

Will post pics if i do end up gettting one!
Checked out 1 yesterday from near my house......Put it this way...i would not give my e30 for 3 of them!
It will be a long hard search as it is very difficult to find one in good enough condition and at the right price!.

Bless.
The search continues......

Keep up the search, they're well worth it. All year round no probs especially if you can get hold of a hard top. They do warm up pretty quick as said. Just keep all the rubber seals well lubed to keep out leaks.

Do it... I only drive one car all year round... I had a Golf Cab before this... same as hard top with the heater on... nothing beats a scarf, wooly hat and a blast if it's sunny on Christmas day...
