    Thanks

    Chris,

    Wasn't me you were talking to!

    I too have the MX-5 Parts Classic Windblocker which I bought at the Spring Rally last year for about £65ish (they are normally somewhere around £100); wish I had only paid £30 for it!!!

     Hi,

    no it wasn;t, someone mentioned in passing they had picked up a windblocker piece for £30 directly from a european manufacturer and i thought it was Brian. I must have got the wrong end of the stick. Anyhow, have found what i am looking for now so thanks for your help.
