New forum!
ChrisW - 12/8/13 at 11:19 AM

I've had a few requests for an MX5 forum, so here it is

Will give it a go for a few months and see if there is much action in here. If there is, it can stay permanently.

Cheers, Chris

Possibly. On the other hand, lots of mx5 owners on here had a locost-type first.

ASH3 - 12/8/13 at 07:32 PM

How about "Jeremy Phillips designed"

He's responsible for 16 designs now so not really feasible to name check them.

I would just go for Sylva .... And then strap line it with Past and Present, including Leader, Phoenix, Fury, Jester, Mojo, Riot, J15 and Vectis

adithorp - 13/8/13 at 06:51 AM

Is it really fair to the likes of Raw and FurySportsCars to mention Jeremy's company and not theirs?

Not sure I'd include the Jester in the strap line but not the Striker or Stylus

The difference is that not many people drove their Sierras around as a 'sports car', they just broke them up. However, a growing number of people here are buying MX5's just to drive them with the view that they are a potential donor in the future.

We're all petrolheads at the end of the day, what does it matter what car we are talking about. Either way, if there are no posts in a month or so I'll rethink.

I think if MX5Nutz (and no it's not just all about 'stanced' 'scene' rubbish) didn't exist it would be worthwhile - but as it does....... I've been wrong before though

Almost exactly this ^^

Jeremy Phillips designed cars
Cars from the JP stable, including the Striker, Phoenix, Riot, J15 and many more.

That sounds right to me.

bi22le - 13/8/13 at 12:12 PM

Please boss!

Track Days
Where, when, who and what !!

So, a week in and only two threads. Should we be keeping this forum or letting people post their MX5 questions elsewhere?

Chris

loggyboy - 20/8/13 at 11:05 PM

Unless some one brings out a locost book based on the mx5, id let let threads to do with the mx5 based kits be under their manufacturers sub headings, ie the MNR.
I dont think this website needs to have anything to do with cars other than kits based around the book locost, 7 style, one off low-cost inspired and kitcars in general. Imo of course.

adithorp - 21/8/13 at 08:56 AM

Hmmm, I bet you'd get a lot more post on...

"Jeremy Phillips designed cars.

loggyboy - 21/8/13 at 09:03 AM

LOL - subtle.
