Michael P Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 After 12 months, 13,100 miles, 3 sets of wheels, 2 number plates and quite a lot of road rage swearing, me and the fiesta have finally parted company. We had our final drive tonight which was quite fun. Boxing day brings with it a new car, the Mazda MX-5, a bit of a change! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewL Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 As if you're going to miss it! Have you found a good MX-5 owners club to go on too? I'm assuming you'll hang around on here despite being Fordless? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparticus5 Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 A Mazda MX-5? Well if you wanted to find a bargain on a rwd convertible then I suppose there's no better time than present. Do you have any immediate modifications planned, like winter tyres and an extra thick pair of long johns? :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael P Posted December 26, 2010 Author Share Posted December 26, 2010 As if you're going to miss it! Have you found a good MX-5 owners club to go on too? I'm assuming you'll hang around on here despite being Fordless? I don't miss it anymore after driving the Mazda! Yeah i've found a good owners club for it, using it more for meets rather than the chatting part! I shall be hanging around here, of course, you can't get rid of me that easily A Mazda MX-5? Well if you wanted to find a bargain on a rwd convertible then I suppose there's no better time than present. Do you have any immediate modifications planned, like winter tyres and an extra thick pair of long johns? :D No modification plans for it at all to be honest, keep it as it is and be happy! I'll put some good tyres on it eventually and keep it clean! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicola 88 Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 Least you know you could make it to bethlehem if you wish! Love the interior, the wooden detail is stunning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael P Posted December 31, 2010 Author Share Posted December 31, 2010 If it was actually wood then i'd be impressed too! It's some sort of plasticy stuff, it might be wood deep, buried in plastic! And no, i definitely did not have the roof down on the way home from work at midnight tonight... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
