I'm selling my Mazda MX5 1. 8is 1997 due to lack of time to enjoy it. It only covers 500 or so miles a year in recent years and I think it is time for someone else to enjoy it rather than be tucked up in a garage most of the year.

I've owned the car for 7 years and only covered 7K. The car has been looked after well inside and out. I had a new mohair roof fitted about 5 years ago. About 4 years ago I had the drivers side cill, front wing and rear arch replaced properly, also the passenger side rear arch was starting to show it's age, so this was done at the same time. As quite a bit of welding was being done I had most of the car painted to give it a complete freshen up. Bodily the car is in very good condition also the interior is very good with no rips or tears on the seats which is quite rare.

The car will also come with body matching hardtop, storage bag & wall brackets

I have got the original service books with plenty of stamps and lots of receipts & history for maintenance over the years.

The car is MOT is vaild until March 2025

This is a wonderful un-messed with but maintained & repaired MX5 with lots of good paperwork to back up how it's been cared for. This is a very well presented MX5 which will bring the next owner lots of fantastic adventures, carrying on the tradition that myself and the previous owner had.
