Well about a year and half ago I was on the hunt for my first ride and was after the the usual suspects such as WRX/Skyline/Silvia's but while browsing Gumtree one night I happened to come across something I thought I'd never like; an MX5 NB8B.
I still remember just falling in love with the pictures and extensively reading up about the cars and even changed preference on what model I'd like but in the end I found a decent 2002 '8B in black that I eventually knew I'd buy.
And after a few emails and test drives I did!
Sadly I never got around to taking and progress pictures or documented any of the mods I did with the car but here are a few snaps over the months:



I loved driving this car. Every time I hopped in the car it treated me well, whenever I told it to do something it just listened and performed like a champ.
But sometimes not everything goes to plan and you end up with this..


While driving in the hills one evening a kangaroo jumped out onto the road and when I hit the brakes hard I lost traction and slid off the cliff. Thankfully all I sustained from the crash was a sore back and a broken car so I happy it didn't end up worse.
