Where to start?

First up no more $$ on the Mazda - keep it for the drag strip (if it comes)

You can seal up a cobra reasonably well, but being a removable roof your gonna get some leaks.

CTC have brought in a SPF Daytona recently, but 25k ain't gonna buy it.

You can make a cobra far more comfortable and reliable than an MG and you'll have a $hitload more fun. If you build it reasonably sedate it certainly could be used daily.

Two types of windows for either hard or soft top; Rigid frame that locates into ferules on the top of the door, sliding glass or perspex windows, or side curtians made from same material as top with zip open window/flap. These are attached by press studs or zipper to the hood.

Vision isn't great, but if you put thought into the size of the side windows and rear screen you'll get by.
