I would love one of these centre piece but all the ones I have found cost a fortune....redarrow wrote:I popped down to the Mazda dealer yesterday to pick up this -

Re: Mello Yello
MelloYello is back in my possession
What I thought was going to be a straightforward panel and paint job turned into a can of worms. Unfortunately Chris at MX5 Restorer was the poor bastard I asked to open said can. A myriad of electrical problems have developed (directly or indirectly due to the accident?) Suffice to say poor Chris has subsequently developed an aversion to the colour yellow. But he managed to get it back to a driveable state and I think it looks great.
I took it out for the day, driving it into work, as it will be the last chance I get this year.
