Hah, small world. I met that girl (and her boyfriend?) at a meet on fri (I think it was a Garage Stalker meet)

They seemed pretty cool! They saw my mx5 and we started conversing about how difficult it is for taller people to fit into tiny cars :)

Thanks in some way

Post by loveitlow » Thu Dec 06, 2012 10:29 am

So I came across this post while reading the some what nice things people had to say about my car and how far along it has come since i started it.

Yes I own "Taryn's" old watanabes but that does not mean I think I am her, please get to know me before you judge me and if you knew my story behind my car u would know I was in the process of doing a Mx-5 up well before her and my car is not influenced by hers in one way possible

So thanks to the support I have received from the various other Mx-5 owners on my build

Haters gonna hate so say all you want but take your time to actualy watch my build and see what I have planned for it because its going to be nothing like Tayrns.

Careful or you'll fall into my trap and the car will become super expensive ;) Well my car as it is now isn't expensive, the stuff sitting in the garage to go in is expensive. :lol:

Be good to see how it turns out though.

Didnt mean it in any offensive way its always good to see more girls getting into cars. Seeing that link actually made my day :lol: another blog to follow :wink:

Plus originality is dead no matter what you do to your car there will always be others that look similar

For example theres a guy in Ireland with the exact same car as mine and his name is also kieran

Keep up the great work loveitlow! Do what you like and enjoy it, the people that leave negative or nasty comments clearly have nothing better to do.

I am keen to see how your car turns out being a fellow Watanabe owner and all.

If your keen for more skidpan time there is a Gymkhana at Hampton on the 16th this month, always good fun and only $30.
