Too Loud, Man (to quote the old song)

 Well we just couldnt resist and bought itBig Smile plenty of scope for some charity work, a useful advertising tool for our businesses and I just cant wait to see the faces on all the good folk at the Nurburgring etc. Lol!

Even if it is “too loud, man”, Thumbs Downit appears to have been going, going, gone for a song.

Well done, Doc ! May you find it in tune . . . .Cry

Almost worth it for the MIMs alone … Thumbs up

 

I think the number plate has got to be worth £500 on its own Wink we have a lot of LLoydd`s here in Wales…

Pics please, I can’t see the ones one eBay and I have this amazing picture in my head of what it looks like.

 

Just for you Cpt Muppet:

Alles Klar?

Ze Germans are going to love itWink

Dr. EunosGeek

I love it. Just needs a little ducktail spoiler for additioanl McQueeness, but it’s pretty damn good as it is.

Also ignoring the graphics it looks like a pretty tidy car. Love the MIMs.

Wronger than a wrong stick.

We did one of those for an MX5 member a few years ago :

I do believe he wanted it done for a Le Mans trip, and I think it made an appearance at the Spring Rally at Beamish.
Good for a bit of fun !! 

 

Ha Ha! if it upsets you that much to spend eons searching for suitable stills to post up then it is an even bigger bargain than I thought Thumbs upWink

 Ps. Yikes! I am going to have to learn how to work manual labour window-winders and get down the gym so I can steer the thing, oh well- at least the air-conditioning will keep me cool after all the excersion DOH!! I have bought a pup or a Britisher spec MX5 as they are more generally known, oh no! at least the mirrors are electric, Doh!..{#emotions_dlg.indif}

“Eons” being about 30 secs for images of Mia and Tia, the feminine Mazda Miatas found in Cars, and the numerous Mater spin-offs. All Dads would already know that Lightning McQueen is a generic NASCAR; anyone who has driven these (I’ve driven a few) will appreciate the irony.

A merging of Mia & Tia with Lightning McQueen would produce a Queen of sorts I suppose. Still, congrats on your purchase.

 Thanks, I`m really happy and am sure it will make lots of people smile (for the right reasons) and a bundle of cash for a good few charities while it is in our ownership.

By the way I spent quite a bit of time with the Stavola Bros Nascar racing team (Snickers Buick) in 1990 at Daytona working on the set-up for Rick Wilson for the Daytona 500 in `91

What were you doing 22 years ago?

Does look solid John, and a good price, I think it’s great, and I’m sure it will bring lots of smiles to a lot more people regardless of the mx/roadster world, also good to know she is doing good with charity workThumbs up

M-m

 

 

If you are not prepared to play nicely then please save your contributions for threads worthy of your irony this one is obviously none of your business either.

In '91 I was working on a chassis for a land speed record attempt. 22 years ago I was designing hovercraft.

Love your car, slightly appalled at your maths [:D]
