Hi everyone![:D]
Ive been lurking behind the scenes on the forum for a while now but I now have one so thought i’d say hi!
I had been looking for one for my girlfriend to use for the daily drive to work and after a month or so of looking at a few that were mostly rubbish we saw a j-spec silver on a J plate, 1.6 with 75k miles on the clock- went and had a look & a drive, then put a deposit down[H] This is it;
Overall im pleased with the car- its in good condition, very good engine and no rust anywhere, just needs a good tidy up on some of the body such as the boot lid edge and there is a split in the rear screen. Over the next few weeks I will get to sorting all of the bits that need attention as well as giving the car a full fluid swap & service and a larger brake conversion with DBA discs as the 1.6 brakes are awful![:O]
Im new on the MX-5 scene but not to the jap car scene, I work in the trade and In my family we have 2 mkiv Supra turbos (one heavily modded with a big single turbo), My GTO (very heavily modded, front end conversion, big single), soon a GT4 as well as the mazda! There is loads I would love to do to the mx, but i have to keep reminding myself that its for my girlfriend to drive to work in, not for me to mod and have fun in![:$]
Me and a friend hold a Jap meet down at Brands Hatch on the second thursday of every month, all you guys are welcome, i saw a few 5’s down there last night and it would be great to meet up with you guys soon- i had my hands full so couldnt get round to finding you[::(]
