Is it not so that we all agree that MX-5's are great cars?
Greg.
When you turn your car on, does it return the favour?

No SP? List is invalid.
BTW the Ghettocet is the best.

The SP was Australia only and the person making the list is based in the US.

The SPs only moment of fame was a bolt on turbo it lacks all the finesse and goodies of the SE

Keep smiling Lizard....until the day an SP whooshing by absolutely wipes the smile off your face!
A standard SE is just a pretender....the SP is the real thing.
Anyhow, I have the best of both worlds, an SP with a Torsen and SE Bilstein shocks/springs and swaybars!

I believe he asked his boyfriend for imput on the article. They first met when he still worked at the hair salon.Magpie wrote:The writer got his degree in 2003, a potential Top Gear presenter I don't think so. If you want a laugh read his Linkedin profile, full of self importance. I would be worried if he rated my MX5 the highest now I know something about the author.

You know there was a reason the SE owner removed them in the first place.....
