It was time today to hand back the keys of the loaner car that I had while mine was being NitroDanned.
Was sad to see it go. Image
Came to me like this and delivered it back to ausbuoy like this

Was a lot of fun and even better now than when I had as it spent a week in Newcastle having a little freshen up.

But you're just biased against Racing Harts?
UK since return: Standard NC2 (horrid), C200K, ND2 BBR, NC2 BBR200 (loved it), NC BBR300 (better than BARMY), V-Special, turbo NB8B (my 84th car)

I'm still rocking mine, and generally think they look ok, but in that shot they just look too big.

lol@Lokiel.

I honestly think Lokiel is like a Racing Hart Batman. If anything is posted about RH's in a positive light ANYWHERE in the world, his bat computer picks it up and *BAM*, he is on it.
"Because he's the hero mx5cartalk deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So we'll hunt him, because he can take it. Because he's not the hero. He's a silent guardian, watchful protector. The Racing Hart Knight."

Well not quite:-)
Sometimes family 'loans' can be complicated, but it just happened to have the RHs on it when it was time to head back North, and they have way more tread on them than the RS3s on the 15" rims, so kind've 'complimentary' road rent. :lol:

Small update,
Have now got the OBD2 function of the Elite 1500 working, going through to the PLX gauge and via a Bluetooth dongle to the torque app. Works beautifully.
Decided to do a little test of his fast the car is compared to before going to NitroDann's. The best I ever saw before was about 6.5 sec 0-100. Tonight will a picture paints a thousand words

Thats pretty cool but I wouldn't expect much less.

I'd get a better idea on the improvement by seeing the 0-400m time, although being a road car, I can understand why there is no data there ;)
NA6 turbo - 140kw atw - not the most powerful but so much fun :D
