Hope your York meet goes well. Plenty of piccies please, esp. Loo Knee and Pete in compromising positions and Michaela Dundee in pink nightwear.

Nah the 4 potter needs a decent run, it been doing a 20 mile daily commute for ages.

Fact remains i would rather drive a big heavy slow saloon, than a mid life crisis hairdressers car mx5

There's only two things I can say need improving on the MX5. It needs more power which can be done by bolting on a super charger or turbo and the boots very small, not much you can do about that but I have been very happy with it since I bought it :)

They do handle ok, even with Petes poor driving style......but part of that is due to the low power output so its difficult to get yourself into trouble when applying the power.

Pretty piss poor in a straight line though as they are pretty tame on the output side with the 1.6 only managing a 0-60 of 9.6 seconds (terribly sorry old boy, I am a little tired) with the (much better setup) 1.8 just edging 9 seconds.

I'd have thought they were more intended for the twisties than the outside lane.  ;) Wind in your hair etc etc  :y  :y  :y
