I've been on this forum for around 3 years now, don't post much, just tend to lurk around.
Anyhoo, this is my first readers ride thread on here as it's the first car I've owned which i feel kinda fits in (having owned almeras in the past)
I bought it last Tuesday and so far all I've done is drive it lots and lots (with the roof down)
This was the day I bought it
Shortly after this picture was taken, on my way up the M6 and halfway through my 200 mile journey home the alternator belt snapped, which in turn meant the temperature went through the roof, i managed to pull over before the car completely blew up though. The AA brought me the final 90 or so miles home. Good start to Roadster ownership!!
Ideally the car needs a respray (I have been having naughty thoughts about this) but otherwise is in good nick, there's no rust whatsoever so I'll be spending the coming weeks rustproofing everything in sight (and out of sight)
