Hi guys!

Got my 3 MPS Mk 2 60-plate in black mica earlier this year. A nice flight up to Edinburgh, followed by a long drive back to Southampton!

Unfortunately, the Scottish dealer wasn't very forthcoming about the torrent of stone chips to the front end! I spent 15 minutes debating with my father as to whether to go ahead or not. Ultimately, I figured that with the low price of the vehicle (saving a couple of thousand compared to locally), and the cost/effort I'd already invested, it was worth the purchase and I'd get a front-end respray. I still need to sort that out, though!

Here're a couple of photos taken about three months ago after I had the car detailed by a local detailer:

Anyway, I've been reading the forum for a while, and everyone seems really friendly, so I thought it was about time for me to register and join in!

Zoom, zoom! :D

Oops, put Aberdeen when I meant Edinburgh! Do I still win the award? :lol: I put Aberdeen because I almost bought a different MPS there the week before!
