G'day, I stumbled upon this newsgroup by accident. I have a 1999 silver Mcoupe.There are only 40 Mcoupes in Australia. We get the Euro spec 321hp engine. I live in the country and I am a country GP. The reason I menioned that is that most of the local Highway Patrol are my patients. They all know I am a long standing car nut and they all know I can drive. (Two seasons in open wheelers as a medical student). That means I get to use the thing properly when the roads are clear and the inspector is safely in Sydney. I must say, it is a magic little car. Closest thing I can compare it to is one of the 60s big Healeys, or mayby the 1962 E-Type Jaguar, the fast one with the 3.8 litre engine.
