A what????

go on yahoo groups

http://groups.yahoo.com

and search for locost

look in the USA group

the miata / mx5 is a choice others have made before.

In the UK even a 12 year old one goes for more than 4k - never seen a scrapped or soon to be scrapped one yet.

Now, Mk1 mr2, there is some shyte around........

stu...


afaik miata is the north america name for an mx5

if you keep out an eagle eye, tou will see that some 'mx5' on our roads are actually badged with the rather prettily named Eunos name. (sounds like Eunoch to me).

They are grey jap imports of dubious history and milage.


3 names for one car.......
