Re: Mx-5 NA and Pug 107
Perfect reception for dab. The speakers in it are shite. £32 for a proper jvc upgrade. We'll see.

Re: Mx-5 NA and Pug 107
I've tried to start it with the engine already running a couple of times. It's really quiet when it's ticking over. Either that or I'm used to big diesels.
The clutch bite is high almost at the end. I've read the cable is adjustable so that's another job. Even if it's fucked, the clutch kit is less than £70 and a two to three hour job.

It has a set of good matching tyres. Even they are only £25 a pop.
It really is budget motoring at it's finest.

Re: Mx-5 NA and Pug 107
Cleared rhe rest of my flat yesterday and have a van full of stuff to put away. I've decided to get the mx5 mobile and rearrange the garage.
There's a car in there somewhere ffs.

Is this a Geordie low budget remake of the Raiders of the Lost Ark tunnel scene?

Re: Mx-5 NA and Pug 107
Half an hour later and connected the battery. Fired first click. I left it running while I sorted the garage.
I'm sorely tempted to cycle over and get it.

Do you store it with the roof down? I guess that'd help with condensation.

I was told to keep it up to avoid creases. I took it dow to make it easier to get in and out of easier. It's rather low.

Re: Mx-5 NA and Pug 107
Service kit has arrived for the 107.
Delivered by herpes. Going off the box, it looks like they've kicked it all the way here. There's a spark plug missing and the sump washer. Hole in the box the cunts.
