    I could change them but it still might not be enough, and it'll cost me another grand or so...... I'm not throwing anymore money at the car. Time to call it a day :(

    The MX5 is still a good drivers car, and it'll tide me over until the new shape traveller comes out. BTW Col it was an A2 not A3

    Ive got 17" bullets with runflats and dont think its that bad, handles a lot better than the wheels I had on my One a few years back.

    Lesley have you got sports plus? I have and for me it's bad, however I will miss the handling :(

    Although powersides in the MX5, if we get it, will be lots of fun

    If we decide to let the MINI go then probably not :(, however if I can sort out the suspension/seats then I'll be there.

    I'll be able to let you know either today or tomorrow....
