Default Roof down?

Before I got the S I would laugh at all your comments about people with drop tops and having them up .. But now I'm doing the same.

I picked the car up on Monday night, and only this morning did I drive her with the roof up (was going to drop it at the lights on the M'way junction, but the lights were not red long enough).

Totally stoked, I've just done a 30 miles round trip to the pub, just to drive her

Cut the speed sender wire to the hood module and drop the top on the move. Best mod I've done and looked pretty cool when I was approaching the line at crail on sunday with the roof rising at the same time

I would have done it , but as I came towards all the lights, they went green and the traffic was starting to move. I did want to just stop anyway, drop it, and then razz off

Will look into doing all the "freebie" mods soon.

Up in Liverpool at a wedding this weekend

I know about the center glovebox (both front and up) as the MR2 is the same. Is there aouther one?

I think I'll be at the Reading meet on Tuesday (if it's on) but I don't usually see too many S's down there.
