Hello! possible future Fabia vrs buyer here...

Just a polite hello as am looking more closely into selling my current wheels and getting a vrs.

Not much to say really, currently have a 210Bhp (about 180ftlb)mx-5 with a shedload of mods (turbo, standalone ecu, 3.5" turbo exhaust, FMIC/etc) a lot of money spent and fancy a change into something completely different, and one where you dont need to keep a socket set in the boot

I have had the car for over 6 years and just fancy a change of scenery (and boot space!)

whyyoulittle.co.uk/mx5/look/Img_1816.jpg (please add www., need to edit my web leeching rules!)

(got no pics of the engine bay!)

so just looking around to see whats what and get a feel for the car and the like.

Also the 50mpg, 250ftlb torque and dirt cheap insurance and road tax helps

***Edit***
forgot about the .htaccess to stop leeching!

my site is
Black-5.co.uk
Index of /mx5

plenty of pictures there of the car and things in various stages, and there is an explanation for EVERY picture btw
