A world away from my previous (FWD, Diesel hatch) car, is my new one. Picked it up last week and my insurance was activated today so I could finally drive it. Have covered approx 100 miles - all with the roof down biggrin.

Loving it immensely already - it's just a bit dirty now. Bought from a fellow PHer (Cheers Chris!) and I've also got a hard-top with it - just wanted to take it off for a few days to have a few days of roof-down fun before I need the security of parking on the street again back in Brum.

Enjoy...

Very smart, they've taken awhile for me to actually like as the old hairdressers cars. But lets be honest thats more for the CC's like 206's, Tigra's and convertible Mini's. (Sorry Tom if you ever read this).

If your interested in getting it on the old track http://ekmpowershop9.com/ekmps/shops/mazdaontrack/... are apparently really good/usefull.

Anyway hope you make the most of the dry weather and enjoy it!

It's great Chris - really enjoying it!!

Have had the hard-top back on since the middle of last week as it's been freezing and didn't want to get the soft-top damp before storage. It's a nice place to be with the hard-top - and the visibility is much better!

Just thought I'd update this. I've had it nearly four months now, have done almost 8,000 miles, and I'm still loving it biggrin - the roof is down whenever it isn't raining!

I changed the orange indicators, side repeaters and reflectors a month or so back for some clear ones to clean up the exterior looks, and had some new tyres and a wheel bearing fitted in the past week. As today was so nice I spent some time washing and cleaning it, and went on a counry lane blast. I took some opportune photos, too - enjoy!
