    FS: Riviera Turret Poptop

    It's surplus to requirements. It's a bit old and the canvas is grubby, I've taken the interior latches and some trim out... but if it's of use to someone then I'll keep it until the weekend before forming a "get rid" plan. Dunno what it's worth, I know I need to put a price so let's call it...
