My dad wants to buy a classic coupe or convertible, around the ?10k mark, and he's looking for suggestions. [

Anyone got any idea's?
I just found this, which I think is perfect, but most likely around the 15-16k mark, which'll prob be too much [

] Such a shame as she's a stunner.
If that Pagoda is in good nick you're probably talking 20k plus. The later model (think Beverley Hills Cop) is nearer 10k but it would still be a bit ropey. My dad paid 16k for his and it's pretty mint. See here

Good suggestion with the Triumph. A TR6 would be good for 10k. Proper car [

] My dad sold his to get the Merc but I think he'd have it back tomorrow if he could.
Went to see the Pagoda in person - wow is all I can say [

] Wants ?17500 for it though [

] My dad is lusting over it though, those kind of old school Merc's are his dream car, but it has a lot more than he wants to spend.
Oh and that blue Pagoda you linked to [:O][8D]
He's not keen on the Karmann Ghia, which is a shame 'cos I love em. Same with the cossie/beemer, I think he wants something a bit older/less retro. Looking into Triumph's now though, so many to look through [
