I loved it when they ran a piece on it on Top Gear, but do I love it more than a Smartuki and a C55? No.

Never raced on track or car park? A likely story.

this is going to be superb. what are you going to put in the nose to keep some weight over the front?

3700 will easily slide you into another red clio, with change...

You know better than I do on these matters, so I learnt something today :)

For track, it makes sense. cuz track car

Pretty much, yes. Just because they're 'special' to types like ourselves, it is, when all's said and done, exactly what you said. :(

For the money, a set of separates would be superior, but it depends if you have the space / want them. I'm somewhat biased though, the B&O soundbar & surround standees at Boardwalk are incredible and make everything else sound like it's a chavs blackberry. :(

That's just embarrassing.

Does it? Interesting. My Launch version PS3 doesn't do non Region 2 DVD's But it's also now dead, after frying its own temperature chip so I guess I'm going to have to get a ghey slim now.

Rust bubbles on the sills and arches. standard issue 5 problem

It is unavoidable. it is your destiny

I'm not that old! :)

Thanks Joey ;)

You can probably get most of those mods under "external cosmetic changes", Elephant hit me for £50 for the stripes on Stripey, but then they've done the same for my grille and style bar on the 5

Love the wheels, and engine build sounds like something I'd day-dream spec from Flyin Miata. EDIT: In fact, those wheels just made the short list, along with OZ F1's and Enkeis

Y'see, that's quite nice.

Well, if it's on a forum, it must be true. In my opinion the extra chassis development and power of a decent spec Mk.2 (sport or S-VT) easily make up for the extra kgs. Friend of mine has a Mk1 1.8 and, back to back, it's nowhere, a limp rattlebox. But then he hasn't poured money into it for...
