So in 2017 I had a front end crash, but i was not at fault, their insurance paid me direct, I had both the steering arms replaced, the front wings and bumper replaced....

Then 2018, just over a year ago after being given a rather large quote to repair my mx5, i instructed the repair only for the...

Well another MOT for the little girl and a full clean bill of health.

The MOT tester commented on her overall condition and how low the emissions were, brakes almost perfectly balanced.

She isn't a concourse by a long shot but, odd minor ding or two and the lacquer is wearing thin around the...

So a little purchase on ebay to add to my collection.

1990 Eunos 1.6 in British Racing Green. Actual purchased for the interior, but on inspection it's a good honest solid car. So not sure on my longer term plans for it.

Couple of photos to set the scene.

So John and his good lady were mad enough to drop her here for some passionate stroking ....namely Water pump/cam belt,seals and adjustments 5 year coolant etc where needed, light service( oil/filter and fuel filter), Zorst re sorting as it rattled a little, brakes stripped serviced /balanced,...

In July 2017 I finally purchased an MX5. As an IT Technician I wanted something that could get me away from the digital world, something that I can fiddle with and enjoy driving. I have no fear of engineering and tinkering but have not done much on the scale of a car before.
I knew I wanted an MX5...

I blame Wayne for this!!!! As he always seems to be getting new MX5’s arriving :-D :-D :-D

I’m also working on the principle that ‘he who has more toys, is happier’ I’ve brought another MX5.

I know Mk3’s aren’t everyones cup of tea, but couldn’t say no. Bit of a distressed sale (owner just...

The mad man Speedy convinced his good lady Sue to drop her MK3 off to live with me for a little while and let me loose on it, I even got the keys off her...for some strange reason she had faith in me??

Any way time to rip it all apart for prepping before applying de- ruster, paint, dinitrol under...

I was getting a little fed up of the same old routine of taking a huge chunk of the money I would have left after paying all the bills and watch it sit in a savings account. Surely there is a more fun way of safe guarding your hard earned? Looks like my mid life crisis has sprung nice and early....

Some may recall this old warhorse in Haggismunching land.
1993 VS Type2 BRG Automatic...because I need one.

It's been mine for 15 years, over which it was motorway hammered, tracked, back roaded, was my daily for many years, been an H4H support ( automatic) vehicle giving busted soldiers a...
