Hi oli, my wife wants to know , 'what have you done'!

What I've done faithy my old mucker, is got the missus to buy the sports car that I wanted and got her to pay for it, by making her think that it was her idea and that its her car and I will just drive it every now and again.

Yes ...... I am a genius.

I did drive a Vectra Estate, This has now become the missus to and from work car becuase she cant drive the RX8 on the builoding site incase she damages it because its soooooooooo low.

A mate of mine had a RX7 years ago - it was amazing to drive, seemd more like motorbike performance

We had a couple of Mazdas over the years, super reliable


Watch those speed cameras :smilewinkgrin:

It's always little things on a car which draws me to them - I bought my current car because of its quality cup holders - you can always tell a good car by its cup holders.

I think the Mazda has a cool little reversing back door with a hidden handle. That's enough to swing my vote
