Where have you been in your MX-5 today?

Great day at masters historic festival at Brands. Had to go in the Kia due to 3 little ladies but saw a mk3 in the poser’s section!

Looks a great day pal :sunglasses:

Today was the first event I’ve been to since owning my MX-5… Went to the Classic Car and Motorbike Show at Thoresby Park in Nottinghamshire… It started off quite cloudy and cool, but wasn’t long before it was sunny and very warm…! :slight_smile:
MX-5’s seen during the day…

Just back from a weekend trip to Applecross, having driven the Bealach Na Ba road for the first time. We decided to drive home via Inverness and Perth to avoid the busy roads near Loch Lomond and took the opportunity before leaving Applecross to get some photographs in the valley.

Took myself off to Rousse slipway for a swim (Guernsey). Felt cold though the sea is apparently reaching the heady heights of 13 degrees C. Still wore my neoprene trousers and gloves though …

Sounds good Sarah! I did see on a weather forecast today that despite the warmth of the sun inland, sea temperatures remain cool at this time of the year…! How warm does the water get as we go in to Summer?

Sea temp can go up to 18/19 degrees in Guernsey in September - which is when I started swimming last year and have managed to go most days since. :cold_face:

Run out to Llandudno today, not as sunny as yesterday but still a great day. Avoided the A55 there and back and found some nice Welsh roads I had never been down before. :wink:

Managed a two for two wave backs from fellow MX5 drivers, red NC and Soul Red ND :wave:

Did a stop off on the way back in Rhos-on-Sea where the picture was taken :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:.

Is it me or is that front tyre on incorrectly? I know some tyres can be fitted anyway around, but it looks incorrect to me. I know I have made a comment like this before on another post - not sure if it is the same tyre on the same car? Its just something I look for…

Thanks but it was already noted. All fixed now. Had some work done on the car and they must of put it on incorrectly. Appreciated you letting me know.

:+1:t2:

Happy to confirm that my ABS works correctly :+1:. Not so happy about how I got to find out.

My HELLA horns work too :trumpet:.

All good :wink:

Lovely evening so time for a quick local trip to Barrow on Trent, had a nice wave from a lady in an ND, and saw an immaculate parked NB. Smiling now Summer is finally here.
