Always read the forum but never actually post, so thought I would contribute for once.

Started with this little guy, a 1.6 Polo !



Which fast became this





Sold it last year and used my Dad's car for a while

Anyway, last month I found this in the autotrader after looking for quite a while.





Needed some tidying up, but had 6 months tax and 12 months MOT and is generally quite solid.
After a few ebay buys and a bit of work, it looks a fair bit better !







Pictures not quite up to date, have fitted a TR lane rollbar which I think looks awesome. Have a few other parts ready to fit (springs,dampers and a full set of bushes) when I have some more money, but other than that, no other plans than to enjoy it !

Had to take it off to fit the rollbar, so I'm putting it up for sale with a load of other bits I have lying around, just as soon as I'm able to post for-sale threads on mx5-nutz !

Ummmm well its this one here : http://www.mx5parts.co.uk/product_info.php/product... but the nylon mesh piece has just come away from the top slightly, about 10" in total, but I have just run a piece of string through it to hold it together nicely. Not really noticeable when its in the car, and its hard to take a pic of, but you may be able to see it here:





Was thinking £50 delivered ?
