Been (silent - for the most part) on another forum for over a year now and I can never get over this excitement people have for old diesel skodas, volvos, saabs and some bizarre ancient contraptions referred to as "classic cars"... And how they all seem to agree that an mx5 is the best car in the world... I mean, I can understand somebody's need for practicality or a cheap fun car, but I just don't understand how anybody can be so passionate about them!

To each their own and all that of course, but I'd genuinely love to understand it!

Volvos and saabs are surprising good cars with their legendary 5 cylinder turbo engines . I think it's in the focus st aswell. Also the "banter aspect " plays a part to these cars aswell as some of them don't have a lot of value you just feel like trashing them and giving them all sorts of abuse .

Drive a 1.6 eunos with a lsd from a 1.8 and throw plastic Chinese landsails on the back and believe me you'll start to develop a liking for an mx5 . My girlfriends cousin owns a few of them and they are a good base with cheap tax insurance and parts
