I keep forgetting to post...
I've seen a few (what I assume are) sunset yellow NCs around Mt Lawley lately. Might be the same one, might not be. Not a bad colour though. Bit of a modern take on the old evolution gold, although I still prefer the evo gold personally.

I spotted quite a few MX5's at the RAC driving centre yesterday :mrgreen:

I was in the dark green LE that did lots of wheelspins and could lock its brakes with spectacular ease :lol:

It was an absolute blast yesterday though, lots of fun.

Now to see about these flat spots on my tyres.....

I see Nathaniel on Newcastle street often (probably on his way to work). Glad you enjoyed the driver training day, I really wanted to be there but Targa South West was too tempting an offer.

Was behind a white NC on Sunday on Loftus St heading towards subi. Also saw a red NA going the opposite direction who gave me a bit of look to check out the car.

Went to Freo, the City & Belmont today - saw 3 red NA's, several NB's, a couple of NC's and a velocity red SE.

Credit to the WA owners, all of the cars were in great condition and obviously looked after.

Only one issue - all of the moving ones had the top up!! Was there a WA only edition that came with no roof latches? :D

It was 18 degrees, and not raining so perfect top down weather! One black NB8A saved the rest, parked in a shop car park with the top down.

Seriously though, great to see more MX5s here in WA in one day than I'd see in Brisbane in a whole week! :mrgreen:

Second outing today, covering Kings Park, Riverside Drive, Joondalp and Burns Beach.

Very nice part of the world here - and on a day like today, it was gorgeous!

Saw 3 x NA's, 2 x red, one with a white hard top, and one BRG, plus a copper red NC. Still impressed with how you WA people look after your MX5s, they're all looking brilliant - well done!
