Another Red NA running around the Highlands. Looked stock, drove past my place(Wingello) one morning about 6 am, and then parked near Bowral train station.

Nice red NB, looked like a SE, at the new petrol place on Heathcote Rd, Wattle Grove, around 5.45PM.

Spotted no other MX5s at PITS this morning. :(

Sunday arvo spotting:

- No MX5s in Pennant Hills / Dural or Galston Gorge. Just a loud, modded, chrome-yellow Beetle next to me!
- White NA driving toward the Gorge at Hornsby Heights around 4.15PM, halfway toward those cameras
- White NA on Pac Hwy a few hundred metres north of that road to the Gorge.
- Yet another white NA around Mt Colah. A motorcycle policeman doing radar checks on cars, hidden by being up on the railway bridge section. Interesting!
- No MX5s on OPH, at PITS or Brooklyn except me, plus a white S2000.
- Red Highway Patrol Commodore starting on the twisty section, heading north, as I've come up the last turn, happily doing the 80 speed limit and waving to the HP car! :D

Sunday in Royal National Park:
Black NB
Dark Blue (I think) NC
Silver/Ti SE.
This is my MX5. There are many like it, but this one is mine. My MX5, without me, is useless. Without my MX5, I am useless.

I remember that on the Pacific Hwy around the Cowan cutting, I spotted a dark blue NB8A; probably returning from a drive on OPH.

Get that bright bracing stripe and I will know it's you!

Is it my mate with the $9k of mods on a $10k car? :)
That is still the best NB buy I've seen!

Hey Guy,

I'll make sure I say Hi if I spot you around... sounds like a nice setup with the carbon trim.

Seriously seeing a lot of MX-5's around now that I have my own... must be a familiarity thing
