Think we should make a brissy meet official like around easter break?

& Philip is your mx5 red by any chance? seen some really nice ones around sunnybank

i sold my MX5 for the EP3 and it used to be red yes. sold it to a young chick who seems to fell in love with it so i guess it went to a good home....

yeah meet over the easter weekend would be great. maybe some where around Sunnybank and prefer during the day.

i can't say if the interior space is exactly the same but i have no problem sitting at the back personally and i'm 6 feet.

never fitted a baby seat either. only boosters.

Wow, you have some bargaining skills if you pull off that price, surely you won't get it. It would be hard to import at the moment for that price wouldn't it. The prices of our cars should be going up due to the dollar as shown through prices of parts.

... i would imagine they would have payed for it b4 the dollar had gone up.. its a fairly low price to start off with so theres no harm in trying the bargin. if its not this one it will be another one, im not in a rush, things are going to keep going down cause no one is buying nething cause there scared of there jobs etc etc plus its not advertised nemore for some odd reason so i wont have any competition
