Mattle40 Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Hi all, I'm new here. Currently driving my well kept mk2 mx5. I love it, it's provided many smiles but the wife has hated it from day one, the "tin can" as she christened it, isn't as refined as she'd like so a step up in class is needed. Boxster I thought!! Nice power, creature comforts and a cracking chassis. But they haven't aged well and a private plate couldn't hide that, then it hit me, the "Z" now I'm sold!! A 350 is way more me than a dated old boxster!! That V6, the brembos and an exterior that has held up so well it looks like It was launched in the last few years. Now I just need to find one. £5k to spend on a DE GT with the full kit. Had my eye on a few but all a little too far to travel to risk coming back empty handed. Hopefully a fully fledged member soon, just made a cheeky offer on a GT within decent travel distance. Matt from Leeds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattle40 Posted January 25, 2015 Author Share Posted January 25, 2015 Thanks again for all the welcomes! Figured I'd share a pic of my current car. I'd planned to turn it into a weekend track car ( FI, coilovers, exhaust) but only got so far as the wheels done and realised I'm fighting a losing battle as long as the better half hates it 😔 so the project stopped there, hence it looking a little 4x4 ish lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattle40 Posted February 10, 2015 Author Share Posted February 10, 2015 So I gone and bought one, very long day but worth it. Gunmetal gt with genesis exhaust and k&n typhoon. 10hrs of driving and I'm back home. What a machine though!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
