Mx5 turbo project then cheap as chips, and affordable to throw money down the drain IMO for the fun.[/quote]


luckily i know people that have track cars but i can see the appeal of the mx5 as it did look proper good fun and it really held its own against some expensive machinery.

Tbh I knew they was good, but I could never be seen dead in one as I've never liked the look of them in plain form, but as I needed a toy to play in after selling the scoob I thought what can I buy cheap as a mess about toy, and luckily found one say over a £1k over my budget but had a lot spent on it so saved me in the long run and all the parts I wanted anyway so snapped it up, I'm actually not that upset for the fun and the speed it can take corners so it's worth a punt IMO.

P.s who's your new friend

And I agree, if you're going to slate the car at least do it to their face. But you won't because you're basically one of those same old keyboard warriors on here with smaller bollox than a hamster.

FFS....Good old Scabbynet...Nothing changes does it. The usual suspects typing the usual rubbish. That's why i rarely come here.

Get a fekin life will you. Life is far too short to be really that bothered about a car to the point you have to slate the crap out of it. Go and find something more useful to do like......Picking up dog crap. Your one and only brain cell should just about cope with that
