Not sure there'd be much change in structural rigidity of the Metro, not much there to begin with

Just asked how he gets on with the manfacturer / will he support me as i didn't by the car off him 
Can you fit a larger engine, like the 1.8K from a MGF / elise (ok, i wanted to try and make it look like i was an honest inquiry).
finally I asked about IVA as i think its replaced SVA and as the car is a monocoque and you've removed the roof i'd need one ....

To be fair to him Paul Banham was telling people they didn't need SVA for years - until he was forced to by the DVLA.
