Got her back today, looks so much better with the hardtop same color as the car, ready for 2015 now:)

Coming along nicely Criss :)

 

Decided to wax mine for the first time in forever.

Quick snap from yesterday

 

[The Compensator]

Do you get more looks from girls now with the new bike? :p

[Ryzza5]

I notice more when walking down the street in my riding gear (i.e. got one at a lunch stop yesterday)

[T1M]

 

Fitted the hardtop (and subsequently removed my fingernails). And yes, it was like 20+ degrees that day... :fp:

[superhyper]

How hard is it to install/uninstall the hardtop? :hmmm: Car's looking sweet :)

[Camel]

Why did you put the hardtop on in the middle of summer? :hmmm:

[CarMadMike]

I think it looks better with it on, though yeah the timing isn't great tim :p

 

Car's looking nice and clean, nice :D

 

Any plans in the pipeline for it, other than possibly removing the hardtop again? :cheeky:

[Margebadze]

got new wheels for my W211

Brabus Monoblock VI R18

it needs paint job and will fit on car :)

[calster17]

So I know some of you guys fanboy over car cleaning and such, well I got mine done properly by a mate. Wax'd, polished, etc etc

And here's what it looked like before...

Rest of the car is just clean as can be! Only down side is you can see the age related dinks & dins more. :lol:

Just hope it doesn't get too dirty on the 150 mile trip down to Knockhill tomorrow, the car is going to be on show.

Really like these wheels and I literally HATE 99% of aftermarket rims! They'll transform the car I think :) Good purchase, they don't look too big for the car which is a big positive.

[T1M]

Thanks peoples.

 

@santtu: The hard top isn't too bad to remove/fit really, it's just a bit bulky and storage is a problem. That's why I put it straight on the car even though its lovely weather... (@camel too)

Thanks Myk :D other than removing the hardtop, I need to get the base car back to optimum, the paint work needs some looking at and it sounds like the exhaust might be blowing (unless its my ears that are blowing), so when it goes in for a service in a few months time, I'll look into all these things. After that, some new wheels and maybe lowering it by putting MazdaSpeed springs on... maybe... ;)

Psh at hardtop. :p

 

When you take it for a service, don't mention anything that might be wrong with it if they ask you. Before that though there's no harm in getting under the car yourself and having a feel/look/listen at all the joins and flanges in the exhaust system. As long as you don't start taking parts off of it nothing can go wrong. Trust me, I know from past experience. :lol:

 

A good clay, polish and wax should bring the paint up and make it look almost like new as long as there are no big scratches.

Cheers Mr Camel :) Might take it to a proper Mazda service place since I don't know what kind of condition the car is actually in, but not mention anything to them. They'll charge the earth but might be worth it for the first time.

 

And yeah true, its just there's a big scratch next to the MX-5 badge which doesn't look too good :(

[SBCriss]

Sweet Mx5 T1M, also love that you got a hardtop for it, I prefer it that way!

 

[calster17]

This happened...

My exact thoughts as it happened.

Yes, I'm that sad.

[Ryzza5]

Took the wee bugger out for a drive today...

[ATTACH]23733[/ATTACH]

Ened up doing 75 miles all around the local area, jousting around the all the fantastic farm roads and such. Even had a little fun with a NB MX5 for around 20 miles. (Guy was just out for a drive like myself, so decided to just muck around). Forgot just how fun it is to drive, from the punchy engine to the fantastic handling! :D

[SBCriss]

Soooo my flares and big ducktail finally came in, SO STOKED !!

 

 

 

 

 

[TIMELESS]

Are you gonna' spray them or leave them black?

[The Compensator]

You'll need more ponies to compensate the added weight and downforce. :p
