nice dude, nice. What's under the bonnet? No forced induction?

Unfortunately I just absorbed the loss as I wasn’t confident dealing with the claim alone, didn’t want to deal with polish insurers, had to move countries shortly after the accident and at the end of the day after selling the car I was only down about a oner.
Sold it to a nice polish chap who sad he was gonna fix it up.
Still hurts to look at though.

Nah just an N/A ej20, it’s fairly gutless but it does have the low ratio lever on the gearbox so it’s fine getting up steeper and slippery slopes.
I might keep it, I might move it on. It’s not really fast or fun enough to justify its fuel consumption* IMO. Maybe my opinion will change after taking it for a good thrash about in the mud but I could sell it and buy a disco that’s better for towing, better off road, cheaper to insure and better on fuel.
It’s an awesome car but I just don’t feel it’s for me.

Well at least you have memory of great hoot bringing it over here. and it's good it has gone to a polish dude who will fix it up.
probably best call in the end

MX-5 passed it's MOT this morning with 0 advisories, what was I worried about.

Snap- 911 went through MOT with nothing plus a service where they couldn’t find anything to do other than lubricate the roof mechanism.

How much do you want for it?

New car ordered today... Realised it will be delivered with a 69 plate (snigger)
I have a feeling the new motor will be widely hated by 'on here'
-
• #47865
I chose to go for a personalised set for mine to avoid it, though I suspect there will be many a car purchase delayed just to get the 69.
-
• #47866
It's tempting - what's the cheapest you can outlay for a personalised plate set?
-
• #47867
£250 iirc
-
• #47868
Bout £150
-
• #47869
Where'd you find them for £150? DVLA cheapest looks like £250 as @Emyr said.
Next question is personal numberplate ettiquette...
Am i spending that money not to have a 69 plate or so i can have my name / car / sports team etc on it? How much of a cunt will i look (new car choice aside)? etc etc
Maybe I should just leave it as it is
-
• #47870
It depends, auction can be cheaper. Full disclosure- I was just going off my Dad’s last one- he does it so the car can’t be easily aged.
If it’s a subtle one- not too much, if full wanker, then massive. -

That site is ridiculous. Who pays a grand for a license plate?
-
• #47874
Hah! Now if only I had a car :)
cheers dude. I remember that happening. just wondered if insurance worked out and if the little car was saved
