All i wanted was 6,500 ova 4 years. What im going to do is get a really good friend of the family that has known me my whole life and lived with me for some of that to garantee the loan for me. She owns a few houses and has worked for the commonwelth back for a about 9 years untill she had her little boy. Her hubby works on the rigs, so they have a nice income coming in. That should work. And im going to wait 2 to 3 months and show a good savings pattern. Then i should get it. If not im going to hit my rich aunti and uncle for a loan.

banks are bastards but there's this place that watches them. i've forgotten who but they gave me a nasty phone call a year or so ago when i applied for three loans from three lenders in one afternoon. i really wanted the car and i wasn't trying to be smart either. just thought if i got rejected i'd have backup etc. but insted i got denied a loan for 6 months!. it sucked. i really wanted the car and my parents are tight as.

hope this saves someone

;)

and the car i wanted was brought by some chump younger than me whos parents gave him the money. i heard since that he lost his license for doing stupid speeds in a sixty zone and was recently involved in a major crash. shame because it was a SWEET car! but now it's gone and he is probably pushing my insurance rates up! ;)

kyles - keep trying - your not asking for a huge amount of money - ive seen people that have had financial difficulties in the past ask for $20,000 and have it approved. Cant believe they knocked you back for that amount!!

commonwealth approved a loan for me for $4000. I didnt end up going thru with it cos the folks lent me the money so im currently paying them off. I only earned 19K a year at the time (thankfully now i earn a lot more) and that was over 3 years. Your only asking for $2,500 extra not that much - thats my credit card limit. Cant understand why they wont give it to you!

    • Not yet, might end up being easter now, didn't end up getting time off over xmas.    I've been seeing some concerning things online now too. Lots of people with issues, could all be setup issues but the consequences in some cases are significant.    All of the below are other peoples stories, not mine and are unverified.  Seen 2 x broken adapter ring that destroyed the gearbox as it failed.   They still do seem to have twin plate rattle despite claims of silent. Several issues with it not holding power but some evidence of constant pressure on plate. Setup issues with bite point.   Lot of people after 2-4 weeks swapping back to another brand.    On the positive side, I've seen a barra put down near 1000hp at the wheels and its held it.  Also everyone seems to confirm the pedal is light.    Does have me a little cautious and looking at ATS carbon clutches again .......        
    • I'm late to the party on this one but good to see common sense has prevailed and the turbo kit is coming. 
    • She's looking good Greg. Colour suits it perfectly 👍
    • I had a look at the FAB9 EFR kit, around $8500 AU before delivery, so add in shipping, installation, consumables and tuning, I believe the price difference would be negligible  And whilst I am paying top dollar at MX5 Mania, if I have any issues with the kit they are local for support,  and from my experience, will happily go out of their way to help, hell, I've purchased parts from them and asked "how do I install or remove parts" and they have fitted a few of them for free, this means more to me than saving a few thousand dollars And yes, 99% of the time I just plod around in the car, that may change once I start hearing turbo whooshy noises, but, as I have 3 family members is the constabulary, even when I'm up it, it is only up to the speed limit, or occasionally, but rarely, overtaking on the Hwy (I just plod in the left lane typically and enjoy the drive) Plus the kids would never let it go if I got booked speeding, Jackie is constantly getting critiqued by the kids about her driving, which I think is hilarious, and tell them that she is "bringing shame to our family", so heaven forbid if I ever got done speeding, after all my mouthing off about her driving, I would never live it down, and it would be another thing she would bring up any chance she got Like the time I got drunk about 15 years ago and fell out of a cab, which gets brought up at least a few times every year since it happened Good times
