Description
Just three owners have adorned the registration document of this MX-5 over its 19-year existence. Having spent the last few years in storage, it makes a compelling proposition for the next owner, with less than 28, 000 miles on the odometer this car feels solid and tight from behind the wheel – much like it would have done back in 2005.
That period in storage must have been in controlled conditions indoors, as this MX-5 is pleasingly rust-free underneath, a common concern on these cars. Since inspection, the car has been treated with underbody protection for peace-of-mind. Exterior bodywork presents well, showing some age-related marks here and there, the interior is clean and well looked after, as is the soft top.
There’s a lovely thick wad of invoices and old MOTs to accompany this MX-5, including a service history printout from the Mazda database showing regular servicing & MOT history up until the car went into storage. A fresh service in 2024 ensures the car is ready to be enjoyed immediately.
The attraction of the MX-5 is that it’s wonderfully simple and lightweight, meaning they are huge fun to drive. 16” alloy wheels with new tyres, ABS and traction control mean this car is enjoyable in all weather conditions. As an added bonus, we found a ‘Greatest Power Ballads’ album in the CD player – the perfect way to soundtrack top-down motoring.
