Complete with body-coloured hard top and black Mohair soft top
Private registration plate included in the sale
The Appeal
The Mazda MX-5 revived the lightweight, affordable sports car formula and brought all of that character, all of that personality and all of that fun right back to the forefront. the 1.8-litre 'S' variant sits at the sharper end of the range, offering a willing high-revving engine paired with a short-shift five-speed gearbox - along with direct steering, balanced chassis and driver engagement that belies their modest price point - qualities that have only grown in appreciation over the years. A visceral, analogue sort of character.
This example stands out thanks to a one-family ownership history, having been passed between family members before the current vendor acquired it in 2019. It comes well-equipped with both a body-coloured hard top and a black Mohair soft top, tonneau cover, tool kit, and an unused space saver spare wheel. Two new front tyres are also included. Unmodified and carefully maintained, this is a compelling opportunity for anyone seeking a well-kept, honest Mk1 MX-5.image.png1.59 MB
