Mini update;
On the weekend, I purchased a Manual 2005 MX5.
Something I never thought I'd be able to do prior to the surgery.
Very happy.
Drag race up Gorge Rd this Sunday, be there.

Interesting, I was thinking about ditching my manual Ford Focus once I get my knee done

Well ..... you can, but for me, engaging the clutch isn't the biggest issue. Getting in and out is the issue (the MX5 is very low) but even then it's being overcome, day by day as my strength returns.

Mines quite low to the ground, too. At least that's the excuse I give for all the grunts I emit when I get in or out...
My left knee is the one I'll replace so I'll wait and see.
