No driving the MX5, me no notice
I had my media pass so I was able to park in the shade away from the common
masses hehe. You should have told the gate guard you were with me
It was hot allright, but it was well worth it. Highlight of the day for me
was seing the scale Mustang (Thunder Mustang) flying, as when it was here
last (Air museum opening) it had engine trouble and got grounded. It's NZ's
fastest experimental, goes like the clappers!
I'm just wondering what happened to the Red Checkers, as they were annouced
to be doing a display beforehand.
*Trots off to investigate*

The frankenstein bolts have a stud(not a bolt from
underneath) that holds them in... it sounds like the
stud is stuck in the car, and the head has unscrewed
from the stud???
You have to use the "double nut method" to get them
out. This is actually harder than it sounds as you
need two nuts that are not very thick so you can get
both of them on the thread.
I know. ive had to remove some before.

Oh fantastic - back to the gay comments - well done clarkson.
This review is far from his best work. I don't want to start another "gay car thread" but gee it pi$$e$ me off.
There are so many good things to say about the nc and this is best he can come up with?

if you are trying to fit some new ones.. you need to
get some studs, any engineering place will have them.
You can even get them from supacheap auto if you get
stuck, they are on the rack of packets of bolts
/screws etc.use the double nut method to fit the stud
to the car then screw the frankenstein head to the
stud.

Wow most of that article doesnt even sound as if
Jeremy wrote it...
Definitly wouldnt say it was his best work.
If you want to stop people hassling you about the
"gayness" of an mx5 then just take them for a spirited
run through some good roads.. that has shut up most of
my critics so far.
Quite simply most writers have said that the next car
that is better than a MX5 is a porsche boxster and
thats $40k more expensive.
The fact that when new not so many years ago, the MX
was the same price as a WRX,(WRX now $60k+) and now
look at the price difference. There has never been a
better time to get a new MX as its even better value
than before when you look at the new car market.
