Thought you might like to meet Cilla, my new car. (well not new but new to me!)

Had her a couple of months now and adore her! She is an MX5 but I think you call them Miata's in the USA.

She is called Cilla becasue she is black and I bought her from Liverpool. Not sure if anyone outside the UK will get that but Cilla Black is a famous Lady (from Liverpool) over here. She used to hang with the Beatles and had quite a few hits of her own. She does TV presenting work now. (well I thought the pun funny!)

The pics are not the best but I got a new digital cam for Christmas so I may take some decent ones now.

Well here she is......






You can't fit ANYTHING in the boot let alone a Tyros so she is not at all practical but I still LOve her
best wishes
Tony

I forgot to add that our American cousins won't know what you mean by "boot". For some odd reason they call it a "trunk".
Possibly because their cars are built like elephants..(Just my very little joke folks)

Nice Tony!
Explanations:
1) Too much money
2) Nice wife (rare breed) (if not, see pt.4)
3) Small family, (if not, see pt 1)
4) Extreme macho/ego
5) 1st. prize at the local lottery
Tell us the correct answer, Tony!

Good lookin' car Tony, but way too small for this old man.

I know Tony, and he definitely doesn't have a wife! He just has his priorities right!
Great car Tony! Reminds me of my youth when I used to buy such cars--Corvettes, Z's, RX7's. The RX7 had a rotary engine and was a wonderful vehicle--for two people only.

Wow! Way to Go Tony with your new sporty MX5 ! Vr-room!

I suppose (with the top down) you could even take your Tyros (positioned on end (behind the seats) with it sticking up out of the car like a surfboard. Don't forget your shades.

btw: what happened to the other car which (as I recall) you had just purchased last year?

Great car! One could even imagine that is possible to carry a Tyros inside, but how about the rest of the gear needed in our gigs? -- José.
