Thanks for that John,
I now have pieced together most of the history, as you stated originally designed by Aurelio Bezzi and developed with Mako, then passed on to quite a few different companies after Aurelio emegrated.
Mine was built in 1993, one of the last, number 26, not many made after this, just a handful. Originally penned as the "Spider" by Aurelio - later called the Cabrio.
I'm just rebuilding the front suspension after the spring snapped doing 40mph. and replacing the brakes with a disc set up of my own making. Overall I'm very happy with the car, it's well made and roomy inside, just need to put in an Abarth for that extra oomph!!
