New toy.
« on: 04 February 2012, 22:05:45 »

Seller wanted 2 grand for it. A mate was round lastnight & told me how desperate for money the seller was. I was'nt really after one but i said to text him for minimum price. He texted back £1400 not a penny less. I had a grand in the drawer & about £200 in my pocket so not enough for an instant deal. We texted back £800 saying take it or leave it that's all i've got...he bit so the deal was done. Plenty of T&T.
     Phoned the insurance this morning & was quoted £1600!!!!!! Phoned Adrian Flux, told them i'd been quoted £860 & they came in at £710 with breakdown cover, homestart etc.
      It's only the 2.5 GTST single turbo rwd auto but in sport mode it will smoke the rears if you kickdown on a dry road @ 50mph. Unlimited rwd playtime. I've never driven such a responsive auto. The kickdown is savage.

   I'm still not really into the Jap power scene. I'll enjoy it for a couple of months or so then punt it out again. Still looking for a more sensible VW/Audi/Volvo etc. but i was in the right place at the right time!!!! 8)

That's a bit different from the MX5  :)

Is it my eyes or is the front alloy a different style to the rear?
