WallaceGlanza Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 Oh man, didn't want to see this as the first thing when the site starts working!I can undersatnd the reasoning but as above can't you keep it on the side and have something for a runaround, think of the amount of money you'll lose and not to mention the time and effort you've put in which can't be quantified!

rob_bower Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 si if you change your mind and decide keep it i will send you an alternator! lol Quote

SiCaln Posted March 20, 2012 Author Posted March 20, 2012 wish i could keep it, need to cut my losses I can't keep having a car that I need/want to work on every weekend and doesn't run at other times, it's just not practical and I can't burden Vik and my family anymore with storing the car - it is nice to hear you all talking like this about it though and I really feel it's as hard for you as it is for meThanks for all of your support - let the vultures assemble! Nah I'm joking I've been in the position and I'm sure I will be again, it's the natural order.Oon the look out for a Mazda MX-5 NB MK2 RS or SV-T Sport pref in white, black red or blue so if anyone knows of any, please let me know Quote
Liam_D Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 Gutted mate, one of the best cars on the forum Gonna be sad seeing it being broke.Will be interested in some parts mate so will keep my eye on the for sale section! Quote
SiCaln Posted March 25, 2012 Author Posted March 25, 2012 Stripping has begun, most of the non-essential bits from inside the car are out and up for sale herehttp://www.ukstarletclub.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=51396Car needs to still be drivable so that I can take it to the garage to do the full strip, please do not ask for other parts other than I have listed as these will not be available until they are off the car and uploaded Quote
JAG Posted April 7, 2012 Posted April 7, 2012 Noooooooo! Sad to hear your breaking it man And over an alternator!Surely thats an easy fix in comparison to what you've gone through fixing the heart and soul of him?Does this mean you never got to experience the epicness of him fully mapped running like a monster!?!I'm sad Lots of love regardless though x Quote
