Very good move, I do think the ND2 2.0 are very special cars, really intrigued to see what you do with it!!

Not much as it's a work car, but I've ticked some important boxes on the order form. More when I collect it on Friday!

How did you manage to get a convertible sports car as a 'work' car?
Every place I've worked has had pitiful 'green' options that were as appealing as plucking your toe hairs out one by one. lol

Anyway, the ND is small, light and eco friendly. Produces less emissions than a big diesel repmobile. |

Picked it up Friday morning from Johnson's Mazda in Oxford (Great dealer so far). PH Hoodie!  Untitled by Nicholas Horne, on Flickr Drove it home and took some snaps:  Untitled by Nicholas Horne, on Flickr  Untitled by Nicholas Horne, on Flickr  Untitled by Nicholas Horne, on Flickr  Untitled by Nicholas Horne, on Flickr  Untitled by Nicholas Horne, on Flickr Obviously a Soul Red Crystal Sport Tech. I added the 30mm lowering spring, Mazda Sports exhaust and the boot spoiler to the standard sport tech spec. After those snaps, it was time to load it up and get my rear canoe down to Goodwood for Retro Rides Weekender.  Untitled by Nicholas Horne, on Flickr  Untitled by Nicholas Horne, on Flickr  Untitled by Nicholas Horne, on Flickr A great weekend of awesome cars and good friends. As for the car? I'm properly stoked with it. I'm still being bit restrained with revs and wide open throttle until I've notched up 500 miles, but even so it feels quicker and more capable than my modified 2.0 MK3 I ran before. I actually wanted a white one, but the wait was looooong as there were no unregistered ones in stock and I'm impatient. I'm so glad I'm impatient as the newer Soul Red colour is just incredible, photos just don't do it justice. More thoughts once I've got some decent miles on it. |

That looks such a nice car and defo a great choice for the colour. I have a white '5' and even I'd say that red is even better!

Love the colour, I don' think they look bad in any colour.
Be interested to hear your thoughts on it once you can give it the beans.
