Price (excluding any delivery charge) of £600



A Factory colour-coded (star silver) VX220 original hardtop.

It comes complete with it's original storage bag and star-tool attachment key.


This is one of the 'getting rarer by the day', original hardtops for the VX220. It is in an immaculate A1 condition and has had many coats of professional car care wax to shine and protect it. It adds certain security from slashed clothed roofs and a GT look to the VX that is astounding.

Hi there. I brought a VXT last summer, and i've been looking out for silver hardtop as it wasn't part of the originial sale. Couple of questions 1. Is this the only silver that was done for vx? Is there a paint code I can check to ensure match? 2. How much difference does the hardtop make to wind noise? I was suprised how noisy the canvas roof is. 3. Where are you based? Thanks Nick

MIke that would be good.

One other question, is there a difference between the VXT roof and the N/A roof, understand VXT has more sound proofing?

Cheers

General question then - does the hardtop require any additional fittings or can I just buy one bolt on and go?

Not going to be able to for a couple of week as work is taking all my time at present :angry2:

I'll drop you a line in a few weeks if that's good for you. Probably be during the week as I work in Milton Keynes so can just fire down the M1.

Thanks
