thanks!
ive had another one with 220 odd on the clock, and that wasnt half as clean either. i guess this car was just lucky in having owners that cared a bit.. so its clean all over. i do my best to keep it good, but it IS getting old. wont last forever. :(

hehe.. cheers. they're strange little 80's cars arent they. choc full o' character. :p does still look neat for its age, but its definetley getting old. i know its not going to last forever (and maybe not even another decade..!?) but ill drag it out as long as i can. ill hopefully always have an aw11 of some sort. :) glad ya's like the roof-rack too. its a beach that i cant take the sunroof out with it on though! atleast its easy to fit, and fit it fkn does well! very very nicely made... n yar. two more pics i took this arvo. low angle...  higher angle...  ..cool. ;)

Hey Rds!
Unbelievably awesome pics of your car, when are you going to show me how to take pics like that?
We'll have to catch up soon. Take me for a ride in it, finally got the parts for my car (sticks like glue, even though the tires are plastic), I'll have to take you for a run
Cheers
Matty

ey matty! yeah mang, take me for another hoon.. those mx5's hammer like all freak! :) you probably wouldn't want to hop in the '2 afterwards though.. its the CX-9 of mazda's in comparison. <_< see, after 340,000kays the engine might just still be limping on, but decade old shocks and bushes fail.. so... hard. :p im still really keen to get it all fixed up and replaced, (springs, shocks, swaybars, brakes, motor, clutch, gearbox etc) but am thinking of waiting out this summer until autumn/winter next year when the weather gets poo poo again, so i can enjoy it now. i dunno... either way. oldskool photo of the good times. :)

Hahaha....definitely, just do the suspension work yourself, shouldn't take you too long, it took me all of 1hr to put my new gear in, 4 bolts for the strut brace, 6 for each swaybar and a little bit of blood/swearing. Swaybars made an incredible difference, go down to repco and get them!!!!
My brother just got sways on his 2 and he's happy, cost around $500 I think.
Lol, at the old days, where's the smoke from my brakes? Lol
