Description:

For sale or swap a modern classic now MK2 NB Mazda MX-5 1.8 petrol with private number plate worth more than £1k included and full MOT.

This isn't your average rotten MX-5, she is solid and in very good condition. Body and wheel arches are solid as the paint work. This is the standard version so no central locking or many electronics to go wrong (!); no ABS, no traction control, manual roof, manual window mirrors but with electric windows. Interior in very good condition without ripped fabric or broken plastics. Roof in good condition too with just two small patches, working and without leaks. With aftermarket Stereo.

Car drives beautifully without any knocks or bangs. And she's really fast as it's a very light car, 1,025kg curb weight with 138BHP stock and 0-60MPH in 7.7 seconds! She has the more powerful 1.8 petrol engine that has done only 102k in 25 years (!). Mechanically she is sound and pretty stock, the only upgrade being the newer radiator. Everything does work as it should. She has x2 new Hankook tyres on the front and the ones on the back have more than half life. With the rare TSW Stealth alloys.

With original manual and x2 keys. Unfortunately previous owner lost service history but is written in the manual that cambelt and water pump were changed at 90k.

With full MOT now up to October 2024.

These in good condition are selling for £4k now and with the added private number plate the advertised price is to sell: https://youtu.be/dx79xGLdguo

I want to swap for

I'm in no rush to part away with her but could have something bigger with rear seats and more boot space; would prefer RWD still and petrol so I'm thinking another BMW 1 Series, a 2010+ 120i or 125i coupe or convertible. FWD cars that I would consider, a stock not messed 2006+ MK2 Ford Focus ST-2 as I do like Fords or even maybe a Renault Clio RS 200 Cup as didn't try one yet. Cars with 100k max on the clock please.

Try me!

I am open to ALL SWAPZ
