The NEW Boagsmobile

Postby Boags » Sun May 25, 2008 12:30 am

8) 8) 8)

Flew out yesterday after work; arrived home today with my new NB8B.

2001; 51,000KMs. Paint is pristine. Interior is Pristine. Genuine 1 little old lady owner. Still has the original factory Turanzas on all 4 corners (never had a flat, never used the space saver or jack).

Clear indicators and reflectors and stainless steel grill on order from MX5Parts UK. Going to fit new tyres and 3.9 Torsen on Saturday...

Pics will be up tomorrow after the club run; hopefully there'll be some cameras there for some happy snaps.

I'm a VERY happy camper! :mrgreen:
