engines in the MIDDLE!

the new Mx5 is a FANTASTIC drivers car! off the radar really! Just has a HUGE image problem.... but it really is a proper car! It won drivers car of year in Autocar as I remember! beating all the supercars!! its the NUTS! but its more girly than Pink fluffy slippers!

as is the Boxster. Without wanting to sound like a prick... I have a few nice cars and (Polly has even cooler ones than me the lucky git) and we have lived with Boxsters for long times, and so if we say they are good.. they are! hope that comes across in the right way! don't wanna sound like a tosser!

BUT they are not for everyone and I don't think Jay will like one!

Weirdly, I was talking about my Boxster as this post came up as its currently with a mate. He is taking his missus away for long weekend and he is already totally in love with it!

Not driven mine for god knows how long! I have now decided I am going country lane blasting with it one night next week.... as I have a certain little lady who thinks Boxsters are wank and she needs convincing otherwise!
