Saturday i was racing the 12v at Cotswold Motor Clubs Autosolo held at Finmere Airfield in Oxon (just north of Bicester) and although i came bottom of my class, i came 38th out of 43 and i came 10th out of 12 after the first round!

photos taken by me and my mate (Rich7585) running the white Nova SR






and then on Sunday i picked up my new car!!
after almost two months of searching and finding 3 cars, two of which were duds, and one was sold the night before i was due to view i found this MG ZR.
i was after 40k miles, around £4000, and i got her at 47k for £3600, with the standard OEM lights should i wish to change them back and also a complete set of replacement wheels suitable for trackdays/Autosolo as on the above link!

great fun to drive, nice tight, direct steering and power like the 12v couldnt deliever!
