« on: 22 May 2012, 19:23:56 »

anyone got one? or any ownership experience to share?

Done some reading on the MPS Owners Forum. Their forum is pretty good, but not as good as OOF.

TIA

Been in a handful, only as a passenger. One of my top 5 real-world cars - silly fast, but big, comfy, and completely invisible to 99% of passers-by. Especially in resale grey. :y

I read bout that on the MPS forum. Is it a real issue, or cosmetic?
