By road: Mackay Trading is located in the East End of Edinburgh near the Leith area. Please see the detailed directions below.

By air: Edinburgh airport is within easy reach of Mackay Trading (15 minutes by car or taxi).

By rail: Edinburgh's main station Waverley is 5 minutes away by taxi.


From the Forth Road Bridge:
Follow the A90 main road into Edinburgh. At KwikFit there is a Y-junction, bear left down the A902 Telford Road, signposted for Leith and Granton. At the Crewe Toll roundabout take the third exit along Ferry Road A902, again signposted for Leith and Granton. Pass Safeway on your left and then the sports fields on the right. After passing the Millenium Motors and National Tyres, at the traffic lights turn right. You will see Muffin's Coffee Shop on the corner. Turn right here down Montagu Terrace which leads into Inverleith Row. Continue on Interleith Row until you come to a small roundabout. Bear left at the roundabout, you will then pass Esso on your right. At the traffic lights turn left onto Broughton Road. Pass Tesco on the left hand side and about 100m further along on the left there is a newsagent with a YELLOW ILLUMINATED TENNANTS lager sign sticking out of the wall, turn left at this shop into Beaverbank place which is a narrow street and we are at the bottom of Beaverbank Place on the right hand side. Remember to take our tel. number 0131 558 7670 and if unsure CALL us on route. We look forward to seeing you.

From Glasgow:
Come off the M8 at Junction 1, following the signs for the 'City Bypass North' (A720). At the roundabout take the second exit, signposted 'A8 City Centre'. Stay in the left hand lane turning left along the A902 in between the Shell garage and the Casino and Comet on right, signposted 'Forth Road Bridge, Edinburgh North, Leith'. On the dual carriageway go straight on at the roundabout until you come to Barnton Junction. Turn right at the traffic lights along Queensferry Road, signposted for the 'City Centre A90'. After nearly two miles, you will come up to a Y-junction this is Blackhall Junction (where Kwik-Fit gagage used to be now there is a large sign there saying "New Auto Centre Opening Next Month") Bear left at this Y-junction down the A902 Telford Road, signposted for Leith and Granton.

Not all G-Limiteds are 120bhp, only the very first ones. Thats a 94' so it will have a 174bhp 2.0 16v engine.

mr2 all the way.

used to own 2 calibras, 1 got killed off the other i sold couple o months back. they are nice but costly, turbos are getting a bit abused in there age now and the understeers freaking stupid. as for general driving, spongy and its a cav.

mr2... fun, fast, better looking, mines 14 years old and no rust. mechanics are fine and the only thing it eats is fuel. but i like to play on my way home from work.
