I'm going to start off by saying that I don't own a mini and probably never will, but loads of mates do - and I go on the L2B amd MITP more or less every year!

I'll be easy to spot at MITP... the only mx5 there! although i hear its at Santa Pod this year :(

L2B should be good this year, but I still need to sort out my travel arrangements

In that case sell the MX5 (leave the village people CD in the CD player) and get a mini! *laughing*

Besides a combe-over doesn't fool anyone! *tongue*

Minis are far more fun, as it is what it is, not a wannabe sports car.

Only pissing about, had to get that off my chest....Welcome to TM.....*tongue*

I have to say that I always had the hairdresser/poofter image about MX5's in my head until I had a go in one, I must say I was very impressed (ask Neil8p!) and would even consider buying one if I didn't think I'd look a poofter/hairdresser driving one about..... *laughing*

In Oz you can get a nice turbo conversion and you can also RX7ise your MX5 with the 13B turbo and running gear. Someone also marketed a blown Lexus quad cam V8 Version!
