I collected Winston on 20.02.2010, and I haven't stopped smiling since! :D


He is a 1999 1.8iS 140bhp edition Mk2 MX5 in Metallic BRG.

Limited Slip Diff, Power steering, electric windows, ABS, Heated Glass window, ducktail spoiler, foglights and Volks-lookalike Rota alloys.


He is sublimely quick, much quicker than Bubble Mks 1 and 2, and although I haven't tested him to the maximum, handles fairly well too!


I need to do a bit of work on him - new roof, which gets fitted Saturday; T&T due in April which will be fun...; general tidying up of the icky wood veneer interior and generally just tidying him up a little bit and giving him some TLC because I think he's had a hard 11 years of life!


Plans include:


    * new green mohair roof - done

    * anything required should he need it for the MOT. - done

    * luggage rack on the way

    * retrimmed dash

    * de-tangoing of the headlights and side markers - partially done 25.07.10

    * some better brakes or pads    * maybe some lowering

    * some shiny trinkets like an exhaust or roll bars



That's about it!


Some pics for you all:




Check out those sexy flanks :D



Lemme know your thoughts, folks :blues:
