Old friends, Good Friends.

I am on holiday in North Norfolk, so today I met up with former Yorkshire AO Martin Van Zeller who moved here five years ago.

Martin has back trouble so the Westfield had to go  to be replaced like so many others with an MX5 😀

BUT Martin being Martin the 1.6ltr engine had to go, to be replaced with a 3.0ltr V6 Jaguar engine producing 270 BHP  well done Martin and great to see you.

Love the fact that the V6 looks like it belongs there, as in completely original!!!

Having met Martin at the recent Norfolk area meeting, I can confirm that the V6 MX5 conversion is absolutely amazing with a soundtrack to match! It does look like it was designed by mazda to fit in that engine bay! 

Thanks for showing me the way home too @Rory's Dad. It was a bit out in the sticks, even for us norfolk folk! 😂
