Managed to get home thankfully as I didn’t get very far. If I’d known how it connected I’d probably have been able to fix it properly before my bodge 😆 New cable needed! Same thing happened to me in my Tiger yonks ago, luckily I broke down not far from a Halfords so used a bike brake cable. After that I always carried a spare cable in that car. I should do the same in the Flying Carrot really but had forgotten all about it until I read your post, so ta for the reminder 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah mine too 2018 LCI, sounds better than the Comp. Just wished I had the Comps seats. Agreed about the turn of speed, having Mx5's overtakes often need to be planned, but in the M2 they were always on! First car I took to the Alps, really wanted to hit the speed limiter on the Autobahns, but had the wife with me 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
