Hello
I've been lurking about and posting here-and-there for a little while and thought I'd better introduce myself.
I've just moved into Sandhurst after living over in Epsom for the past 3.5years, however, I'm a northern girl at heart.
My car, which I've had for just over 5 years, is a '99 1.8 MX5, virtually stock (cos I've been saving up for my own flat) but it is lowered. I can only dream that I will win the lottery so that I can get it supercharged. It's a special limitied edition called the '10th Anniversary', to mark 10 years of the mx5 so it has all the electrics and a few other extras (Torsen LSD, 6 speed, and blingy wheels). She's my little baby
I go to a couple of local mx5 meets but I'll try and make an effort to attend a PH meet in the future, although I did join the PH run down to Virginia Water last year!
So, hello to you all!
Helen

Hello and welcome.
Why are you called Planet Claire when your name is Helen?
It confuses everyone!Why are you called Planet Claire when your name is Helen?
It's a bit of a long story but I've been using the name for the past 12 years or so, since I was at uni. One night I was watching a local late night music program when they were interviewing a band and I recognised the signer as being a girl (Claire) I went to school with - their band was called Planet Claire. I took it from there, although I've found out that it is the name of a B-52s song too. I believe she has now moved onto bigger and better things and is/was in the backing band for Robbie Williams!

Hi Helen!
Great little car you have yourself there, not like those awful red MX5s with Tan roofs.
Make sure you come along to the next SAS meet which by my reckoning is the christmas bash on the 7th of december!
Its a great opportunity for you to meet loads of us all in one go.
My car is true blue all the way through (got its hard top on at the moment which is annoying me as it's rattling - need to make some adjustments)!Great little car you have yourself there, not like those awful red MX5s with Tan roofs.
