Did you end up having many problems with the car?
1. Clutch fixed under warranty (the usual noise thing)
2. Faulty battery replaced under warranty (flat within 12 months and would not hold a charge)
3. Spark plugs and leads replaced under warranty (hopping when driving at low revs)

Scotts was great in honouring all concerns I had. Most of the work was done early in its life and gave no trouble subsequently.

I know how you feel Suit. I bought mine in August '99 and much as I am thinking of replacing it (for a Rolls Royce Silver Spur of all things guys!) I know I am going to miss driving rooflessly and as a result I keep delaying the date for replacement.

As it is I think I'll probably hold on for another 2 years.

Problems were very similar to your own and all fixed under warranty.

1. Clutch buzzing - clutch was replaced but symptoms have recurred, I just live with it now
2. Battery (lost a cell) and I didn't even realise but the dealer insisted it be replaced.
3. Rear window - scratched plastic
4. 6th gear synchro

Other than that all fine.
