Re: What did you do today?

Checkout the straightness of that chrome strip 🤣

Re: 1968 MG Midget

I think I'm not going to keep the rear original. Mine should have the rear reversing lights but I think they look so much better and cleaner without those pair of generic Lucas lumps on the back. I believe mine was the first year with them and one of the few minor differences with the 1967 (longer d...

Re: 1968 MG Midget

Nope. They are a wishy washy yellowy colour.

It's why I'd have to see one in person to really decide if I want to go that route.

Re: 1968 MG Midget

I'm still debating in my head on what colour to go for. The biggest factor is that I bought it this colour and because it is this colour that makes it a nice little story attached to it. Something that should help its sale if I do decide to sell as it's a cool reference to have. PXL_20211208_1047123...

Re: Cars you always wanted, then didn't...

In answer to the original question ... pretty much every car I have owned for less than a year is probably the best answer I can give.

Re: Cars you always wanted, then didn't...

Pre 2005 Porsches focused on the drivetrain and suspension. It was the 996/Boxster/Cayman generation that really saved the company and pumped a whole lot of cash in that allowed the interiors to go far more modern.

Re: EBay Finds

Here is your chance Panhard65 to own one perhaps? Screenshot_20231013-151923.png Looking a bit closer... FB_IMG_1697206817807.jpg Same FB group as your P5. That chap is thinking of selling some of his excess stuff, so may sell. Personally I think it would be great to put a Hayabusa lump in one.
