I saw that the other day and thought he was asking a fair bit.......Mind you S-Tec recently had a fully rebuilt 718M (a nice job.......first registered in 1991, but with a P80 grille), for sale on their website for 90,000 euro (well, 89,900 euro ) and K's are worth a fair bit more.

I have seen that picture anywhere else. i think ist was on a exebithion in Uk on the area from Shropshiregunbus (gregor) Adventure Overland Show 2015

Is just me or is the roof on this K droopy in the middle? Like a banana.

Maybe this ones had excessive weight on the Steyr roofrack, I don't think its just the photo angle though, something's wrong.

Edit:
I just looked a bit closer and the centre door is definitely dropped and is sagging in the door frame/pillars....something is not good with this one I think.

I'm thinking it's a photographic problem, not a metal one. It's hard to see how it could have a bend like that without it being catastrophically obvious in the body. Not that it's mine to argue about.

I tend to agree Tony, as I believe that if the roof was really bowed, there would be further signs of distortion or damage on other body areas, such as the upper curved side panels.
Additionally, the full roll bar behind the rear door (just like the front layout), would surely distort outwards etc if the roof was sagged.

Looks like its possible that the windshield frame is just a touch tall causing a very slight deviation in angle starting at the back of the drivers door going forward. Or it could just be an effect of the lens used for the photo. Not anything that I would see as damage or defect, I suspect this effect exists on many / most "K" models, just that in this case the roof rack draws ones eye to it.

Point and shoot camera with a bit of a fisheye effect is my take on it

I'm sure it is from the focal length of the lens on the camera. The wider angles will start to curve lines at the edges.
If the person had stepped back a few feet , and zoomed in to create the same photro, the curved lines would have not been there.

Or simply look at the 2/3 profile in the ad... there ain't nothing wrong with the Pinz
