Well done Kinky

I'm still sad I've brought the wrong car.

I've been so happy with it for a year now, and I've suddenly woken up, removed those rose-tinted spectacles, and now feel nothing but utter dispair at my enormous mistake.

In fact, I feel so sad that I'm going to spend all tomorrow afternoon cleaning and washing it and give it a good old traditional, roof-down blatt to the PH Sunday Service*

* That's assuming my clutch holds out. I think the release bearing is on it's last legs, as it makes horrible screeching/whistling sounds when it's cold.

The MR2 is much closer to this however

It bloody well is not.

I did of course completely fall for the wrong trick at the start of this thread. I thought Mattikake was a disgruntled karter, not some delusional owner of a budget sportscar.

He's clearly never driven a proper 2-stroke racer at all.

And what kind of half-pint half-man can get in an MX5 anyway?

I can. In my case I'm a 6'1" half-pint half-man.

I can't.*

Fat bastard. I hope you never try an Elise, you'll never get out again! Mind you, an Elise is probably a girls car compared to an MR2 so you're never likely to make that mistake.

Must be something to do with the size of my nads, or the fact that I have some.

Sounds like a particularly bad case of testicular cancer.
Shame.

Apologies for feeding the troll again.

Bloke looks for MX-5, doesn't fit in, purchases second choice of sports car, convinces self that original choice was a shite car anyway, tries to force opinion on everyone else.

Isn't the post history feature great?

After discounting a TVR too

Great point Timberwolf!

Why didnt fattikake buy an Elise instead? Surely that is closer to a kart...

Trouble with the TVR is as follows:

1) It has two seats
2) It has suspension
3) The engine is in the front, not just to the right and back a bit of your pelvis
3) It has full bodywork
4) It doesn't have a pull start.
