So I'm a new MX5 owner, had it about 3 months now. I have been a member on the forum for like a month and a half but with work and home life, I'm just getting around to introducing myself to the community.
I have to say, being a bigger set male, I was very sceptical about buying one, but from enticement from friends including a fellow member I took the plunge and bought one. I have to say, they are probably the best 2 seat convertible I have driven. My first car was a Japanese import Toyota levin, and it reminds of the precision I got in the levin, but you have more fun in an MX5 as the tail can give you some input! 😊
I have done a few mods already including replacing the wheel, new radio and an oil pressure gauge. The steering wheel is a Nardi deep dish 320mm with a quick release hub, makes for some interesting faces in Tesco. I have a lip purchased and on the way, and a set of JDM fog lights also on the way.
I'm a 23 year old Fitter in Halfords with a keen interest in Motorsport, be that drifting or BTCC or anything else I can get my hands on. I'm also a keen self taught mechanic so anything I can get my hands on, be that experience or literature, that make my mechanics skills any better will be of massive interest to me.
Thanks a lot for reading my post, I hope I didn't bore you too much.
