   Once Im back on the road and got my new brakes fitted as well I should have found the time to have my Bucket seat and Harness which by then should have arrived - Im kinda interested in a Roll Cage.
   
   Dont want a naff Chrome rear cage off eBay, but Im quite interested in the OMP half cage with the bars that go past the doors. I think thats around the £250ish mark, any ideas what else in available with out going ott as Its pretty much just to renforce the shell and look good really as Im still alittle to scared to take the S on the track
   
   Thanx

   hehehehe
   
   But we tend to use the S at weekends and sometimes it can get alittle uncomfortable when we find a bump road or on a long drive.
   
   But it beats taking the Micra

    vts boy its not show use, its the correct one. it wont have the door bars though as you need the front section to fit them too. sparco may have something aswell as safety devices. may be more expensive though
