2spark 6 Report post Posted August 16, 2011 Thats a bit nice. You now need to remove your orange repeaters, tint the lights and blackout the reflectors Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

infiltrator 0 Report post Posted August 17, 2011 I can get some nice Bilsteins for about £160 - it's just a case of having them fitted... Mia has been driving really well the last few days so I think she knows I've been around Alfa's and is feeling left out... I also need some bloody centre caps!!!

Rewe 8 Report post Posted August 18, 2011 Mk 1 have the purest looks and are great fun to drive. I love them, but I am not confident enough to own one of my own and Mrs R doesn't want one. I feel girly enough in my GTV so would need to do a lot more growing up before I could have a MX5! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RSK 0 Report post Posted September 26, 2011 You'll have to kill me I'm afraid as I'm the owner of a 3.5 2.0 sport convertible. Had it just over year from new and have had the coils changed so it sits lower plus it's been fully aligned by an outfit called Wheels In Motion who do lots of MX5s. It's set up on their "fast road" setting and I love it. I only do about 4k miles a year and most of that's at weekends but I live near Milton Keynes so get lots of roundabout fun I've just put down a deposit on a new car for next year but if I hadn't I'd be splashing out on a BBR Cosworth S/C kit and a Milltek exhaust to make a proper little surprise package.
