Ignoring the stupid exhaust on the top one, I really like the look of a shooting brake MX5.

Ignoring the exhaust, I quite like the top one.

Although I don't really see the point in it! Yes I guess you could take a dog but beyond that a standard MX-5 is more practical as anything too big can stick out the roof!



I don't like the bottom one though, that rear window looks gopping.

Very similar to a Z3M

In don’t mind either not sure what you mean about gopping rear on the 2nd one? Also with the top one it’s nice to see they have kept it Mazda by using a 323f rear window.

And yes if you need to get your annual Christmas tree then they convertible would be more appropriate.

The way the rear side windows slopes down at the back on the blue car looks terrible. Not to mention the kink where it changes from front to rear windows. It looks like a badly photoshopped on roof while the silver car looks like it was designed to be like that.

The way the roof line and windows flow on the silver car is excellent, If I didn't know better I'd think it was a factory effort.

I have a weird urge to buy something like a Transit next to use as a bike carrier/odd weekend away type vehicle. This has made me want one even more.

How does everyone feel about this?

Jensen CV-8 spotted at a recent HSCC meeting at Brands Hatch. I love it personally!

I've always fancied doing one of the Berg cup events. I like sprint and hillclimb events but the UK ones are just too short and too expensive. I was spending hundred of pounds for about 6 minutes track time including practice. frown

In 1972 a group of crack window cleaners were sent to an HMP prison for a crime they didn't commit.

They promptly escaped to the North London underground and today, if you have a dirty window, no-one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the A-Clean......
