My coupe and its adventures
My mx5 seems to be getting all the attention at the minute so I thought I'd start a thread for my daily as it deserves some attention too. I'll try to keep this updated with pics from when I do use it for more than just commuting and daily chores. For now I'll just put up some pics I've got so far.
I'll put any work I have done in here too so I can keep track of it.

Looks lovely (the Coupe, of course!), particularly like the colour of the interior what I can see of it.
The 4th photo should be in the February competition.

The nova is my mates who I share the unit with its a gsi with the 2.0xe engine in. He's had it about ten years now it's a fun little car and gets so much attention it brings back so many memories for people.

Re: My coupe and its adventures
The interior colour was one of the main things that sold me the car, I wanted black, red leather and auto. There were a few cars I looked at like this an audi s4, audi tts, and this oneTR4man wrote:Looks lovely (the Coupe, of course!), particularly like the colour of the interior what I can see of it.

It is really good round there I've done it many times before and it never gets boring. I've got a 2.5 hour long loop which incorporates it in to some other amazing roads and I do it when ever I get bored.Marlon wrote:Cool I googled that 'Evo triangle' - looks like a good run outW17GLE wrote:Rivington is literally five minutes from my house it's been my playground for years all the way from back as a kid mountain biking to passing my test and using the great roads for my various carsMarlon wrote:Rivington - that's not far from me in Preston.

I'll see if I can figure it out on a map for you I don't know the place names or roads I just know it through years of going to North Wales for drives. Maybe we could organise a run out and I'll show you I've done it a few times where ive taken a small group out. The pic with the other z4 and the two cliosports was on that exact run.
