Thanks again. I'd seen "HT" in the auction listings and I assumed it meant hardtop and hence frameless doors, so it's good to have that confirmed. I'm sure our regulations will be tightened sooner or later, but at the moment all we have to do to register a car which is over 10 years old is fit a rear foglight and put it through an MOT test (annual roadworthiness test). Converting the speedometer to miles per hour is a legal requirement, but not part of the MOT test, so not everyone bothers. Also, there are no laws, other than general roadworthiness, which affect the number and type of modifications we can make, and if the car is 1992 or earlier we don't have to have cats. If it's younger than 10 years the car must go through an "Extended Single Vehicle Approval" test, and to pass that the car has to be in standard trim, although once it's registered we can do what we like (subject to roadworthiness / noise / emissions regs). If it's 1997 and later we also need a "model report" for crash testing, emissions, etc., and that severely limits the models that can be imported and registered. .
