Special Edition models were finished in British Racing Green paint (code HU), and this example shows no evidence of accidents or bodywork per the seller with a number of matching body panel VIN tags displayed in the gallery below. Some minor door dings on the driver’s side are noted by the seller, and the 14″ seven-spoke Daisy wheels wear a complete set of Ohtsu tires.

The removable color-matched hardtop is pictured above and is a replacement after the original top was stolen while at the dealership for service. Protective window tinting has been added on the side and rear windows, and several photos highlight the condition of the black soft top, which features a new plastic window installed by the second owner.
