Looks fantastic! I love my 5, but we have a baby coming in July. The wife has a Mk5 Golf GTI, not sure we can run 2 cars. I'll be gutted if I have to let mine go!

While my cars been with Garath at the MX5 Restorer I thought I would give my garage a paint to try to make it a bit brighter and reduce the amount of dust in there. How it was before, quiet dark and gloomy  And all done, its alot brighter in there now and floor is looking alot better, still needs a bit of tidying tho. Not bad for £29 of paint  Go and pick my car up this evening, cant wait to see it with the new rollbar in and smoothed bumper

Well cant pick my splitter up till this evening so probably wont have time to fit it today, so decided to clean the engine bay a bit by removing the charcoal canister that doesn't do anything. How it looked before removal -  Removed from the bay  and how it looks now its removed, tidies it up a bit and saves a bit of weight
