I still do that most of the time after 8 months  s:D :D s:D

That's what I said when I picked up mine, 500 miles in the next two days was the result.  Couldn't stay out of it.

Now you know why we MK3 drivers try so desperatley hard to to convert the MK2 owners over on the MR2(MK2)OC, they just have no idea what they are missing out on.

Just imagine it with a turbo...   s:twisted: :twisted: s:twisted:    s:twisted: :twisted: s:twisted:  

I also think it's high time we had some sort of Scottish meet.. there are at leat 3 regular Scottish posters on here now   s:lol: :lol: s:lol:

Haha sounds like a plan mate! but not on sundays as I work sundays (the reason I miss most scots OC meets!).

I'll be arranging a Dundee meet and there seems a few OCers interested, so if you wanna pop along I'll send the info once I've arranged something  s:) :) s:)

Send the details and we'll see what happens... work tends to get in the way of meets for me too... only real time I get now is a Sunday... and Saturdays are a big no no.. not much chance of getting one of those off work.

I like the White car Red details - looks good.

I've also seen a lovely white car that's now out of the club unfortunately, it had Elise seats in it and was a beautiful example.
Looking forward to seeing how you go with this.

Always liked the yellow.. but do whatever you want to it visual mod wise.. Its your car.. have somefun  s:) :) s:)

Been telling you for weeks Marks car was a nice example, and a good buy with the extra goodies it still had! Look forward to see what you have in store for her, welcome to the fold mate!  s:D :D s:D

Nice to see you've finally got a good one! Bet it was well worth the wait!

White does look great. Porsches, Astons and Elises look fantasic in white. Seems to be the new silver. I'd be torn between white and matt black
