    My Mx5

    Well thought I would start a little thread as I will be keeping this one a lot longer than the last :whistle:

    I bought it from a guy who had to sell it due to his arthritus in his knees

    ORIGINAL SALE THREAD

    When I bought the car it came with:

    It's done just over 74,000miles (119,290km)

    Mazmania mohair roof (with heated glass screen) fitted just over a year ago
    Wolfrace Force 8 15" wheels with Yokohama Parada Spec2 tyres (done less than 5000 miles)
    Gaz coilover suspension
    Suspension fully Poly-bushed
    Both rear brake calipers have been replaced in the last 3 years
    Stainless steel header
    MX5 Parts twin exhaust
    Westco battery
    DIY Randell cowl induction
    Apollo Immobiliser
    Remote locking
    Magnecor Electrosport 80 HT leads

    Looked like this:









    Got rid of the Lexus lights as I was not really a fan of them, fitted a Bride Bucket seat from Nocturnal

    Now it looks like this:



    I have also now got a Mazdaspeed Cat back exhaust and have a single exit bumper.

    I have just ordered:

    HEL Braided brake lines all round
    Silkolene Pro-S 5W-40 Oil
    Genuine Mazda Oil filter
    NGK Irridum spark plugs
    Carbing 6 point rollcage( on thier Way)
    XXR Wheels (on thier way)
    Another Cam Cover that will be powder coated along with the Roll cage

    I recieved my new wheels within 6 days of dispatch form the states

    Anyway I plonked them on with some 195/50/15 Yoko pardas that I had on my odl wheels

    Needs lowering and the arches doing, I am going to get Archenemy around to do them as he did the arche son my old 200sx I had. Picture also shows my Mazda speed exhaust.

    Excuse the phone pics, I got excited and needed pics lat night. I will get better ones at the weekend, although one of my tyres has since developed a puncture :angry:

    OLD 200SX on XXR 002's



    the Mazda:







    needs lowering and a bit of paint work/sort a little bit of rust that is just starting to show and its as I want it really, I say that now though, already thinking of Turbos

    I'll get some better shots once I have fixed the puncture I have got
