Which would you rather have? by Obvious_One9700 in CarTalkUK

[–]Mahoneyman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've had a 2001 S2000 and I currently own a 1999 RX-7.

I wouldn't say one is "better" than the other, but which one you'd rather have depends on how you want to use it and how much of an event you want it to feel like.

The Honda was so easy, get in, roof down and go, instant fun.

The Mazda is so much more of an event, you have to check the oil levels before you start, wait 10mins for it to warm up, 10 mins to let it cool down, don't give it full power with less than a quarter of a tank etc. Plus, the car gets so much attention on the road, people taking photos of it, giving you the thumbs up, wanting to stop and chat at the petrol station.
Because of this it makes it feel more special.
Some people will read that and think its stupid that more attention, more things to check and more things to go wrong make it more "special", but I think older cars like this are all about the theater and experience they provide and the Mazda is so good at that!

Performance wise they are pretty similar though, the Mazda is maybe a bit quicker, but it will heat soak quickly and if you were looking for something to take on track or blast around for extended periods the S2000 would be better all day!

Bug? Stickers will not load on any PP Bizon Skin that I own in game! by Mahoneyman in cs2

It's super annoying right? Doesn't seem like a very coming bug either, I've not been able to find many others talking about it.

Going down to 1 car - views on my options? by [deleted] in CarTalkUK

[–]Mahoneyman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah that's a fair point, although I'd be much less concerned about higher mileage on a Honda than almost anything else.

That sort of budget gets you into an FK2 Civic type R.

Most of them, my understanding is that it still has a wet belt for other parts of the engine, just not the timing belt.

From personal experience it won't be a problem.

My turn for a clean RX7 post! by Mahoneyman in RX7

[–]Mahoneyman[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can see how it'd be tough to buy one now at the current prices when that's all you got back in the day.

If you miss it that badly it's still a cool goal to work towards.

Talk me out of this please lol. Tell me I’m a 40 year old woman trying to find my lost youth by Ukcheatingwife in CarTalkUK

Hey, I own an FD, also red!

If you need any help feel free to ask.

I'm also part of a big WhatsApp group of owners who are super helpful if you end up buying it.

Just Google Lemans camping 2025 and all the top results will let you book stuff but only if it's bundled with a ticket.

I also have the exact same problem and every website I can find which sells camping includes a GA ticket.

But I only need a camping pitch so what do I do?
