Hey guys,
Had a friend take some decent shots of my mk2 1.8 '5 that I bought a month ago so thought it'd be good to show it off!
Have to say, everything said on PH about the little car is true! Have had it a month and still have a lead foot on every journey, makes the weak fuel economy worth it!
It may not have a great deal of power, but seems to flow so much better (compared to all my previously FWD cars!) and the roof is almost always off, never grow tired of it
I aim to keep this for two year until I'm 21, then my target is a S1 Elise!
Have been down to a SS and a Breakfast club at Goodwood so far, plan on attending every meet I can with it!
Not sure what else to say, just wanted to show her off!

Poko, got your email.. I can't reply on my iPhone for some reason so will reply here.
I've actually got a sidemount plate now, but previously I just took the plinth off of the front bumper and stuck my plate straight onto the bumper with numerplate sticky pads. Much better looking than with the plinth
Only used 3 strips and it held through summer and winter (snow) with no problem.

Very very nice. Looks very purposeful, bet one of these on R888's would be fun.
What make is the rear roll bar?
How much do the weigh compated to the MK1 or MK3?
Also, is that a MK2 or 2.5?
Its a TR lane. What make is the rear roll bar?

Nice car poko, looks like mine! Personally I don't like the look of sidemount plates on mk2s.

Its a mk2 and they weigh slightly less than the 2.5, cant remember the exact figures though.What make is the rear roll bar?

Cheers for all the comments guys!
Seems most questions were answered.. But I don't actually know what coilovers are on her, need to have a look!
Not going to do anything to her, apart from getting her rust-free and proofed! Some other minor things such as new brakes/remove the front numberplate box but I love the car how it is at the moment!
Still loving every trip out in it, always have a grin on me
