112K miles isn't high. Looks smart. I really liked the Racing Bronze shade they did the 10 year anniversary ones in, then I saw the dark blue one someone has here and I liked that, and now I think that shade looks good.
That seems a bargain at that price.
10AE came in only one colour - innocent blue... Racing Bronze was a standard colour from launch of the MKIIThat seems a bargain at that price.
Agree though, £1150 does seem a bargain
Works as promised but claims are slow, call centre staff aren't great and despite nothing in the terms saying so they won't pay credit card surcharges from breakdowns and deduct it from claims. Local providers they use vary wildly in response time too.
For some reason I didn't need to pay for last night - no idea why.
Belts changed - that lower alt bolt is a b

Still getting the odd chirp of belt squeal now and again having replaced the PAS and alternator belts - the PAS one was slightly longer than what came off (4PK875 vs 4PK855) so I just tensioned it more and it seemed to take up the slack but I wonder if I'm gonna need to buy the right one.
Old belts were completely destroyed - the alt belt (which snapped) had broken into it's individual strands and the PAS belt only had 3 of them intact, one of which had broken away and wrapped itself around the pulley!

Have tried using some belt slip? That cured the squeal on my old mx5 belts Old belts were completely destroyed - the alt belt (which snapped) had broken into it's individual strands and the PAS belt only had 3 of them intact, one of which had broken away and wrapped itself around the pulley!
