car looks as good as always mate

The driving position is weird at first but you quickly get used to it. You can lower the drivers seat also. It's the only thing i'd knock the car for tbh. Don't know why Renault thought you needed to sit so high lol. As i say though, you get used to it.

Cheers Whirly.

Like the car mate looks smart

The first snowy pic is now my desktop background. Thank you very much :)

No updates again, just some pics... Things might start happening soon. I've got somebody in the process of sorting me a few bit's out but we shall see what happens :)

Great colour this

Cheers dude :)

Lauren has some amazing rolling shots of this mate. I'll get them up when they're done.

Awesome, cheers dude :) Always wondered what it looks like on the road :D

Sold :) It's a shame, it's a lovely car. Time for something else though.

Lovely car, shame to let her go

Kept that quiet mate, what's tickling your fancy as the next project?

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:( :(

How could you??? you better replace with something more special!!

It's something that was inevitable tbh. I've wanted a mk1 MX5 for years now... Just not had the balls to swap to an older car. But screw it, i want one, i'm having one :)

Definitely more character i reckon. The Clio's awesome, it's a mint car and i'd recommend one to anyone. I've never had the same click with it though like i did my Saxo.
I'm hoping the character of a mk1 MX5 will give me that 'click'. I had one for a day last year. Slower than the Clio, brakes are shiiit in comparison lol. But i didn't stop grinning, i loved it :y:

The guy has only left me a deposit atm btw. Picks it up on the 28th :)

I'll add some pics from today whilst i'm at it...

I hope to god the new owner will look after it! :(

Cant wait to see the next project!

I think you're mad selling a far newer Clio RS to fund a MX5 rotbox CHIP!

Only colour I reckon they look good in imo is;



Obviously it's whatever floats your boat, I hope you find a goodun'

I don't expect everyone to agree with the move :) Coincidentally the guy who built that mx5 also had another mx5, which I may be buying lol.

Hows that for coincidence lol!

I just picked the best blue one I could find, maybe that means you may end up with a good one then :P

I do quite like MX5's. Something a bit different anyway :)

GAZ Golds, sexy rimmage and camber :)
