Hi there,

Am new to the MX-5 world so thought I'd post a quick note to say hello! I picked up my 1991 MX-5 yesterday evening and took it for a spin across the Dublin mountains! What a super feeling it was to drive it! Even though it rained and I couldn't put the hood down, it didn't matter!

Cheers!

Taz

Stick up some pics if you can and hope to meet up soon on some of the runs

Enjoy the top down Zoom Zoom feeling and safe motoring.

Regards John.

@John - If BRG means British Racing Green, then yes, she is!

I'd seen the posts about the trip to Waterford, might come along for the day on Saturday!

Taz, you weren't on the Liffey Valley roundabout around half one today were you?

Hi Val,

Cheers

Taz

Hi Taz,

Thank god it wasn't you

1) she didn't wave (mortal sin)

and 2) Her roof and car in general was in bits and my little lizard gave a sigh of pity passing her by!!

The back plastic window was brown taped together, the roof needed scrubbing, the body needed washing and waxing and the alloys were cheapy gold!!

Sigh!

sorry if I have insulted anyone else here but for the love of god!!!!!

welcome to the forum from the other side of the water

by **Taz** » Fri, 13 Jun 2008 3:51 +0000

Ergggggggggg! No wave??

I'm all for the waving!

I used to have a 1973 VW Beetle and just loved when other Beetle owners gave me a wave! It's a crime not to wave back!!

:lol:

Cheers

Taz

Love them!!

Hi Taz, welcome to the madness............ I mean club! They're all sound!

Hi Taz, welcome.
The runs are great (I only done 1 so far, but it's pretty relaxed and the people I met are sound).
Hope to see you in Waterford.

Hi Taz - welcome to MX5dom......hopefully the summer is on the way and you can fully appreciate the joys of driving topless.
