I've got a spare set of silver alloys sat in my shed along with a colour coded hard top I've heard that the mounts are prone to failing, I need to replace the cable for my soft top as its snapped

Get on vx220.org and search for the soft top cable....IIRC Liz (or Eliz does them cheap)

The mounts/rad cant be checked before you buy.....they just tend to 'go'....

Just be prepared for the expense

then why didnt you say so????

Mounts are about (ish) £50 each (from Vaux, cheaper from vauxparts) total bill will see you spending about £180-£240 depending where you have them fitted....tbh its a pretty easy job to do yourself
