Where have you been in your MX-5 today?

Took it to the Snowdome on Sunday for some skiing.

Two hours at -3C when outside it was +35C.

Bliss.

Staying at Caffeine and Machine. We went to Gaydon today to finish off what Covid got in the way of. We are now having a cheeky one (or two) watching all the Friday Sundowners turn up.

Just been to the meeting for volunteers in preparation for the National Rally at Sywell, with our Local Northants organisers, Dave and Chris, and Iain Fleming. Good meeting. Looks like the 2022 National MX-5 Owners Club Rally – Sunday 11th September at Sywell Aerodrome. Northamptonshire, is going to be a good one.
Great drive home with the top down. Perfick!

Hi OrangeMX-5,
I was there too, and saw your lovely MX5 and also Phil_H’s JLtd as well.
I wasn’t in my MX5 though - I took a vintage car to Beaulieu this time!
A great event and such a lovely evening for a drive in an open car!

Yes it was a lovely evening for a drive. My RFs prominent position was due to being good friends with Pat who was directing the parking! :joy:
I could easily sell my soul for that Invicta. I didn’t realize it wasn’t black but deep burgundy till right next to it!

Went to the countess of Warwick show at little easton, essex today and in the car show area there was this beauty, unfortunately the owner didnt turn up so i couldnt chat to him! If you own this car its a credit to you, lovely, made my day!

Had a run out to Silverdale yesterday via Forest of Bowland. That was a fabulous run out. I planned it on Google maps, moving the waypoints to places that looked interesting and then sent the route to my phone. Off we went.

This was was taken en-route at Jubilee Tower, I Whats apped it to freinds we were meeting there… they were going down the M6 :face_with_hand_over_mouth:

Just got back from France, Luxembourg and Belgium, 1500 miles in 10 days. second European trip this summer. NC ran perfectly, sat at 110 (kph) all day on the motorways, then pootled around the back streets of Strasbourg.

When it hits 35C, I keep thinking I must get a car with air-con next time :sweat_smile:

Only hold up all week was the Dartford Tunnel on the way back…sigh, whats new.
