Hello British car guys.  As much as I love MGs and TRs, I rely on a Miata for my
everyday transport.  I just bought a '01 BRG Miata which will replace my '91
BRG Miata.

I thought this might be interesting to you guys in spite of it being a Miata:



I've posted previously that I bought a very nice '01 SE to replace my '91 SE.
In the process of selling my '91, I park it at the bottom of my driveway on
weekends with for sale signs in the windows.  My driveway is on the St. Helena
Highway in the upper Napa Valley where a lot of tourists drive by on weekends.
So, on Sunday as I'm parking it and putting the signs in the windows, a couple
in an SUV pull over and get out of their vehicle and walk toward my Miata.  I
get out of my car, and I can't believe how beautiful the woman is.  She looks a
bit like Julia Roberts, but maybe better!  Early to mid-40s, brunette, petite.
Very nicely dressed in casual chic clothing- a 9.9 on the 10 scale.  So I say to
the couple, "Do you want to buy a Miata?"  And she says, "Do you come with the
car?"  That was the highlight of my day!

Interesting in that the woman who was the former owner of my '01 was very
pretty.  And the gal that bought my red '91 Miata seven years ago was also very
attractive.  Miatas are maligned for being hairdressers' cars, but they should
be praised for being cars that beautiful women seem to like.

Here is link for my old '91 on CL for anyone that might be interested:
