I bought it a couple of weeks ago from my place of work, it was a trade in & i got it quite cheap smile

It's covered 54k miles from new & has had 2 previous owners. Over the next few months i'm having the rear arches done, theres a bit of rust bubbling through & the alloy wheers refurbed. I'll probably get the front bumper painted as well.

Gave the hood a proper clean today, with the Autoglym kit..

Looks good in Silver. Would have on of these but at 6'4" the last time I tried to get in one I was told I looked like Donkey Kong in Mario Kart.

Do you think I'll look like a plonker at 6'2?

It looks beautiful. I wish my Mk1 had a heated rear window like your one instead of the plastic rubbish that goes mushy in the sun. You will love it. MX5s are great fun!
