I just had a neighbour drop in while I was washing the NA for tomorrow

He's looking for an MX5 so I suggested he come down tomorrow and have a look, maybe someone will know of an NA or NB for sale, he's only dríven the LHD version overseas!

If you do know of an honest NA-NB around Brisbane flick me a PM and I can pass it on or see me at the Open Day tomorrow

Thanks :wink:

Great day, good turn out and interesting to see a few 86's! Also got to think about the fuel capacity in my build, however the carpet and radio are staying, at least for the moment.

I would say put any photos here.

Great day Danny & Staff

Awesome display in the back garage of the rare Mazda's, that attracted a LOT of interest!! Also the spotless workshop and the display of your fantastic WTA NC Rotary [getting much closer now!] and the other track cars

Unbelieveable to see the Holden Maloo 6L powered RX8, and so loud! Together the mix of Mazdas attracted so much attention

Special thanks to Eric, his wife and all your Staff for the BBQ and cold drinks and also to everyone from the 'community' that mixed and mingled thru the day

Special thanks also for the courtesy extended to the 86/BRZ people that called in for a few minutes and stayed a LONG time! I can tell you they had the best time!

It was nice to take 'Animal' [my NA as named by a few] down to mix with her cousins, I could see she was so happy! Now to attach the eyeballs to the pop-ups and a smile on the front :wink:

PS: Eva!! Lovely red NA you picked up at a bargain!!

No problems Roger, I did not upload the ones where your head was chopped off or photos of feet. He had a ball (except for the loud engine) and you made up for Kelvin not being there.

Thanks Danny, Clive and everyone involved. My four year old daughter and I both had a great time.

Great to see the usual suspects as well as meeting miatas76 and some other new faces.

Cheers

Thanks Automotive Plus for hosting a day at the workshop. Always a pleasure visiting you guys, having a chat and trying not to slip over on my own drool!
Great to see so many cool cars, and fellow MX5s... and the first time I'd really been able to check out your collection Danny :D

I knew there'd be a wealth of photos of the proceedings, so inspired by the collection I took to a particular theme...
