Folks,
My last post here for a while as I've sold my mx. Although I tried to hang on in there, the reality of having a small baby meant that it wasn't getting used as much as it should.
Things that I will miss:
- the surprising looks from people as I zoomed past bigger coupe's with my turbo singing.
- open top 'B' road blasts [obviously!]
- roundabouts
Things that I won't miss:
- no ABS - always had to pray a little bit on a wet day.
- slightly stupid exhaust that I was talked into getting to help the turbo spool, but makes me sound like a chav.
key error:
not buying one already converted to forced induction, thereby forking out for it myself! - no regrets about the end result, just slightly bitter about having to pay for it myself! but thanks to lazza for the passenger lap round bedford that convinced me to plump for the turbo
don't hate me!, but I think that my next car will be an M3, so that I have a fast car that the 3 of us can travel in!
cheers

P.s it was a mark I 1.6 Turbo and I sold it for 2k [had a little rust and needed the back windscreen + couple of things on the interior fixing... ]
