Default Looks like good value.

Looks like good value, considering they were costing £135.00 way back in 1999. In ROVERS accessory brochures.

Might get one for the coming summer season.

They certainly don't make cars like these any more, so much character is lost in today's modern equivalent.
I think you meant to post this reply to the one about the unique Rapier soft top!

I bought the proper Rover a few years ago for far less than those, but if you are looking for a coolbag/box then I wouldn't recommend it.

It is too big and bulky to be truly portable, yet the space inside isn't great at all. It would be better if it was smaller and more portable, or bigger like the big plastic ones with carry handles as you could then fit in a decent picnic plus drinks etc.

On the plus side it does keep stuff cool very well.

Well hello, I'll buy it off you, regardless, PM me.
Or perhaps someone else will.
