Hi all,

Never got round to posting up some pictures of our car, so here goes

(the pictures below were taken last May, on one of the few nice days

As you can see, it's a UK spec Rev 1
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
- we bought the car in March 2006
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
(jeez, didn't realise it was that long ago

).
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
The car had FSH, and had done 73104 miles.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Currently, the car has 76493 on it
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
- it has never skipped a beat, and I cannot believe just how much fun the car is
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
(on the few occassions we have the time to get out in it!).
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Every MOT has been a straight pass, except once when it got an advisory for a slightly sticky passenger front caliper
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
(so I keep on top of that now).
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
I've only made some small changes to the standard car
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
- new CD player, TRD gear knob, steering wheel, cone filter, wheels and tyres all round
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
(the tyres have less than 500 miles on them).
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
I've kept everything which I took off of the car, so at least someone can put it back to fully standard if they want.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
The original intention was to buy the car for the occassional trackday, and as a nice runaround for the weekends.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
We've never done a trackday, basically because we thought that the car was too good to risk, and here is the dilema

Before XMas, I got an early present
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
- a few laps driving an Aussie V8 touring car at Rockingham.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Since XMas, I've found out that a guy I work with races in the MR2 Championship.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
So, like all blokes, I've got the yearning to do some track time

but I've still got a car that I think is too good to risk

![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
do I sell this, and pump the money into something cheaper and not so much of a problem if I knacker it?
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Anyhow, hope you like the pics
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
- if anyone can give me some inputs and give me their thoughts, that would be a help.

Cheers all,
