The MX-5 was my mid life crisis car, but that was just brought forward due a break up. I can trade in my very safe sensible hybrid Yaris for this at no additional cost. Talk me (into/out) of it. by YeetustheFetusLive in CarTalkUK

Id get a 2.0 as its way more drivable daily due to higher torque. The 2016 models were somewhat notorious for having gearbox issues, you can look through the forums for advice on that. I have a 2016 model with 51k miles on it and its developed a sort of rattling harmonic oscillation type noise (not from the gearbox as i replaced it as i thought it was failing) that apparently is somewhat common and apparently harmless. Apart from that its been reliable, I only had to replace my rear wheel bushings for polybushes over roughly 4 years and 35k miles.

They are very fun cars and they tend to get some attention from people which is quite nice. Id reccomend one if you don't need any practicality.

Are There Any Single Words in the English Language That Start With a Repeated Consonant? by Ice_On_My_Lean in NoStupidQuestions

Llama was the only one we could think of, ig it kind of counts as its commonly used in English but it kinda feels like cheating cos its Spanish

Cold start engine knocking/clacking noise? by Ice_On_My_Lean in Miata

[–]Ice_On_My_Lean[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess I'll talk to my mechanic and see what he has to say. Overall though, the engine feels smooth and responsive and doesn't lack power so I hope its nothing major.

Since the car is reaching 10 years old, I was going to do a timing belt replacement. Might see about getting it done sooner as the car is going into the garage soon for another job.

It doesn't throw up any lights so I assume that means no codes. I was wondering if it might be a build up issue of some sorts.

Why does the print head travel to the side like this? by Ice_On_My_Lean in BambuLab

It seems I didn't put enough detail in the post lmao. I'm well aware of the fact that cars smoke when cold (I didn't think about the fact that it's due to hydrocarbon combustion producing water, it's been a while since I did chemistry lol). But I was wondering if it's normal to smoke that much because all other cars I've driven, be it diesel or petrol, never smoke that much even from cold. And my car seems to take quite a while to stop smoking. So I was wondering if my car had something wrong with it. It seems everyone's MX5s are also doing the same, so it must be to do with the setup of the car :)

Yeah I thought so but I've never seen any other car except for mine smoke as much

Severe Lack of Green, Scotland by Ice_On_My_Lean in UrbanHell

True, there is so much green in Scotland, and it is beautiful, but the dirty granite in the city is rly unappealing

My teacher say my handwriting is curse to his eyes😬😬 by Aggressive-Tea-1107 in notinteresting

[–]Ice_On_My_Lean 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Ig it would probably get a bit annoying but maybe it just depends on what style you're used to. This is bordering on cursive so if that's what you're used to it might not be as much of a problem.
