I'm happier when my MPG is lower. When it gets to 12 I know it's money well spent. #Slideways #Happybunny #Tankfullofsmiles

Finally got round to re-trimming one of my spare door cards. Not entirely happy with the result though. Dimensions of the supplied panels (about £100 for the pair) were a fair way off. Too wide in the short side and a bit short on the long side. I'd have adjusted the length, but I don't have a sewing machine. IMG_20180809_162817 by James Edmond, on Flickr

I didn't realise that the CL pads came in MX5 shape - what brakes are you running?

The standard sport brakes.

The standard sport brakes. Thanks for confirming! So far I'm happy with my Hawks but a mk2 upgrade might be on the cards one day, so I'll bear this in mind Was looking for them for the mk1 versions but couldn't see any!

Oh, and today I have been mostly wondering if the car will actually start tomorrow, seeing as Friday it started to need a push of the accelerator to get it to catch and idle!
