But watch out... the rear end tends to get faster than the front on occasions  indeed, Thomas (dealer) told me he got 2 clients on the phone, they sliped on the greasy roads and needed repairs...

Hi is your roadster fitted with a soft top as well as the hard top, or does having the hard top mean that you cant fit a soft top?
Love the colour

Love the colour when the hardtop is on the car, the whole chassis from the softtop stays home, as they both use the same "fixing systems" but once the hardtop goes off, I'll put the soft-top on (read=dealer will )

more pics from SpaFrancorchamps Trackday  Moggie is still fresh (only 2200km arriving at the track) so I could'nt stress the engine to much. I was among the slowest on the track, mainly due to the brakes on the modded hatches (Renauld Clio Cup). The handling never scared me, having had a heavy crash in the previous MOrgan, I knew I could feel safe. If something needs improving: steering-feel and braking. I did about 25 laps we had booked the whole day, idea was to do a few laps with the Mog and the rest of the day running the MINI, but the Mog got me hooked   my favorite:  another nice one:
