:shock:

When did that happen??? Did you get rid of it when you got the work Ute?


Sold it in February - I have a car that is big and comfy and free... and the MINI which was depreciating in value - and not actually getting dríven.

So I sold it... Now just have the Mirage, the HiLux and about to put an offer on a house.

Would anyone be OK to let TheMissus sit shotgun in their NA6 or NA8? We'll both be heading to the meeting point to catch up with yall for the rest of the fun :D

TheMissus wants to drive an NA6 or NA8 to help decide which future child we're gonna adopt 8)

FYI: I'm happy to ride shotgun in ASE05 whilst the owner of said NA6/NA8 lets TheMissus have a drive to figure out which way to go......and you get to drive ASE05 :?

EDIT: The not so sure face is due to the fact that 3 people have dríven \"our\" baby since we picked her up off the showroom floor........ :roll: :P

I'll be driving now.... again....
If MegaSquirt doesn't play nice, then I'll reconnect the stock ECU.

ASE05, as much as I would like to offer themissus a drive in my NA8, I get the feeling my alignment settings is the worst in the whole MX-5 world, and if the ECU plays up and decides to shut itself, and the engine, off, then coasting without power-steering and vacuum-assisted brakes is not the most pleasant of sensations. :?
