looking great.
Ordered a little while ago from Japan. Zoom Engineering centre console. Custom order as they don’t normally do this make-up of colours.

For me the seats are key and a big price to get hold (if you can separately). Rightly or wrongly I was responsible for a few RS-Limiteds losing seats and wheels back in the day as I never thought...
Few updates.
The MK1 RS-Limited passed its national inspection test (MOT). Next month all being well it hopefully goes in for a makeover, which will be good.

A little UKDM. I have a JDM key barrel cover in the Tuckin99 Roadster but had this done in the UK and customised for the GReddy demo roadster.

Thanks to @yellowgloves.na8 on Instagram I now have some ‘animated’ versions of 3 of my roadsters. I had seen Pete do something cool whilst the chap who owns my old Corns Roadster had the Corns...
Played with the roadsters today and took a video of my silver roadster.

It was a good day to be out in it mate.
The stalks are by a chap who used to be on mx5nutz back in the day when it was busy. He was a jeweller or watchmaker if memory serves me right and did these...
Brief video of the Pitcrew Roadster at the MOT station.

I have also had a Kanspo hardtop on my old red Pitcrew back in the day whilst also had a Kanspo hardtop on the corns roadster when I owned it.
I think it has worked best on this car. Against my...
The Pitcrew Roadster came out of storage for the first time in about a year. It has a national car inspection test this week, which spurred my decision to get it out. I was up early today so filled...
Busy few early morning starts getting my blue R-Limited MOT’d and my silver roadster. The MOT is the UK national car inspection test for every car over 3 years old if you want to keep it on the road....
Hi Pete,
Hope all is well with you and family. Forgot about the custom sills. Yes those are new too.
Cheers James
All quiet at Madaboutmx5s.
Only things done has been a full service on the standard white r-limited following new coolant and hoses in June.
Likewise a key from Japan for the GReddy Roadster....
^^ I do like the de-badged look. If the cars didn’t have a tuning heritage to the names mentioned my preference would have been to leave out. Doing with a style influenced by the factory look...
Yeah I would recommend Craig and the badges are of a high standard. The washer jets are such a simple, cheap, easy upgrade. I have them in my silver roadster (and think in another?).
I would....
Thanks. I’m happy with them. Good quality and as mentioned looked a little factory finish as been included by the factory badges. In other news fitted to the GReddy some ‘twin-jet washers’ from a...

Updating my build thread with some bespoke badges I had done here in the UK by Craig at CC Design. I had seen Craig’s work for a while and like the idea on a lathe he was doing variations influenced...
Thanks Pete. It’s ticked the boxes for the GReddy. A fairly expensive part for what it is but if I could justify the cash would do in some other roadsters I have as improves the interior.
i guess...
Fresh parts from Japan.
After buying the GReddy roadster I realised it needed a Trap moulded dash top like I have in my Pitcrew, S-Limited (was S-Special) roadster and Tuckin99 roadster.
The...
A hardtop added to the GReddy. Wrong colour but a matte black finish that works ok IMO.
I May get it sprayed when some normality returns but will leave the hardtop on foe now.
...
Looking really good mate.
Following Pete’s suggestions I have done briefly today some walk-around of my GReddy Roadster:

I’m no video Director but gives a flavour of the car.
Bank holiday weekend here in the UK so what with lockdown enjoyed the fine weather and cracked on with some jobs on the GReddy turbo.
