Alert! New Cabriolet owner!

Hello everyone. As stated in the "introduce yourself" area, I have just bought a 1996 Cabriolet 2.6 Auto. It's a very nice cruiser, and I'm very happy with it.

Prior to my ownership, it was in the care of a TV&Film vehicle supply company, who prepared it for use in the "Diana" movie. Terrible film, but the car appears a few times and looks very good. A friend of mine spotted it and directed me to it. I think I've done very well. It wasn't any more expensive because of the film connection, so that's just as well, as I wouldn't have bought it for that reason.

Anyway, it's Santorin Blue with a Blue hood and a beautifully retrimmed charcoal leather interior swapped in from another car. When they were doing the swapping, they didn't keep the wood trim on the doors and side panels, so I'd like to replace that if possible. It also needs a good service, the sagging doors adjusted and probably a new radiator. I'm looking forward to fixing it up very slightly and then enjoying it.
