Greetings and hello from Wazza... (MX5 club member from the Oxford and Milton Keynes groups in UK)
My good lady Shobhna (InItSister) and I drive a MX5 Mk1 Eunos roadster J11 Ltd in Bright Yellow.....
Just a few pics to make you drool... (No I am not Scottish but do enjoy wearing the Kilt, I did my skooling in St Andrews Scotland)
we recently came to Ireland on tour with 12 cars and 22 people from the Oxford MX5 owners group and we had fantastic weather all week. We all enjoyed your fantastic country so very much.. and we met Valred too.
My normal home for forums is www.5ive-o.com and there I am very busy... but now i hope to drop in to say hi from time to time to you nice people

Hi Wazza,
You're very welcome! Nice house you have there, btw...
No more Mk1, now driving an '08 Mk3. Still fun!

Hi there & welcome, I spotted you when you were over too, (i was the mad eiijet in the vectra flashing and waving like a child as you came in to dungarvan!!!)
Great looking car you have there, if i ever buy another 5 it will either be yellow or a merlot.
Just something about them. If you ever decide to come back again let us know and we can organise a bit of a meet. Show you some local places.

Hey Wazza, you're welcome to the club. Glad you had a good time while you were here.
Love the car.
Must be a bit of a draught when driving top down and wearing a kilt

General Custard is the name of our 5, i was with suzybee today and we visited a well known MX5 parts man, in deepest Hampshire today... GC now has a new (White) mirror fitted and a correct bolt in the bulkhead to hold the drivers seat runner in place. Hmmm now need to get some yellow paint.

hi gentlebugs et wazza (hello hello hello)!
Delighted that all went well and seemingly I am hired as PR ....WITHOUT any discussion of pay and conditions!!!!!!
I am presuming those photos were 'before' the boat and the smashy job on your mirror......though thankfully you have a new one with a different paint job!!
Considering I am still suffering from 'mx5Hairitis' I don't know how you keep the kilt still in the car............or maybe thats half the fun!!!!
I am back down in the sunny south east for a few days and seem to have the county to myself - which is great!!!
Ta rah,
val

There is a conspiracy going on!!
Just cos I am on my summer holidays doesn't mean you have to give me a job!!
My god! I thought Mx5's were great cars and I would enjoy one but now I am expected to wave/flash, talk to people....be nice............toooooooooooo much pressure!!!!!!!
Ah well........goin' cruisin around Wexyfordnia!
Enjoy work (teee heeeeeee )
