Better than any Austin Powers "Shaguar" is Marion Winter & Burkhard Eickmeyer's groovy MkIV Spitfire with W&P Sebring GT hardtop. We hope to have more text and photos of its restoration in due course.

In their own words:

"Reinald Kirchner sent us the link to your great site. He also sent you a photo of our Spifire, but we do not know which one. So we sent you some more photos, that you can publish on your website. Times ago, we already searched for any information about this kind of hardtop but we could not find much. So we enjoyed your website very much, because it shows a lot of photos and is very well investigated. Well done!"

Many thanks to Marion and Burkhard for the use of their photographs and text.
