right then, I think it's time to dump my MG F and get something different so I need some sugestions before I spend the next few weeks looking at MX-5s.
What I want in an ideal world is a convertible, RWD car, dependable to use whenever needed and fast enough to have a bit of fun in. Well what I want is an elise but I'm only looking to spend ~ 5K give or take a bit. A turbo might be fun but I don't really want to do the mods myself, I'd like it as standard as possible. My F is on a R plate and it needs to be newer than that or my better half won't entertain the thought of spending more money on an older car
Insurance is not a problem (I'm an old git and have a garage). If it has a bigger boot than the F that's a bonus but it does need to be able to take a boot lid rack to take my MTBs on it for weekends away along with the camping gear. Or my kiteboard and kites if I'm kiting, I have to take the wheels off my board to get it in the back of the F which is a pain in the bum
ideas, thoughts and other advice welcome
