Evening folks. So after deciding I wanted an mps I've been going threw the forum reading learning as u do. So I found myself a nice black mps 6 79k on clock bit of rust on arches with plenty of history and even better has rota alloys, hks bov, 2nd cat delete 3inch sure air filter and pipe to turbo and cobb accessport all for £2400 bargain. Yeh I bought one with vvt problems so that's been done mechanic hit me with more news the rear shocks leakin so might aswel go on the hunt for some coilovers. The plus side is the cars amazing and I can defiantly see myself keeping it for a while the day dreaming has already begun  Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Welcome. You will be lucky to see many other 6's on your travels. In my book, that's a good thing.
That's a bargain by the way.

Welcome! I do enjoy the relative exclusivity of owning a 6 MPS, occasionally you'll get somebody who knows and sparks up a conversation about it, often they'll have a rare car (or dreams of owning one!!) themselves.
