Convertable/ Mid-life crisis car? *PURCHASE PG3*

My dad tonight expressed an interest in a "useless car" as he put it, and by means of utterly tactless questions I found he meant a 'mid-life crisis" car, but of course, he isn't having one of those...


Anyhow, he doesn't carry people much, max one passenger, and doesn't haul stuff any more. He wants something tasty, a bit classy, and looking to buy when his current Felicia runs out of MOT come October, or else early next spring if the Felicia takes him through another winter.
Spend - up to £2k.
Age - nothing too old, he isn't capable of maintaining a real classic any more (which is a pity, he had some great ones when I were a nipper)
Requirements: presentable enough to mix with our eclectic car club chums, accessible enough for the bad days when his leg is stiff (so no low-slung cars!)

So far, shortlist (high possibilities):






Shortlist (low possibility):






Definite refusals:






Just thinking - I think we would like to find him something a bit 'hard' if its a cabrio. Doesn't like jelly-mould cars. In fact, find me an 80's american soft-top (preferably GM, preferably Camaro) and we'd be all over it...
