£5k to spend on Mk2.5 upgrades

Before you spend a great deal of money, understand it will never be Caterham light, have the steering feel of a Lotus, the drive out of a corner like a Porsche, the brut power of a RS Audi or the ride of a Rolls. 

It will always be a MX-5, which is really really good at being a car you really enjoy driving drive and having fun at sane speeds. Take care you don’t make it less MX-5.

Much to ponder even before that last post from saz9961. Thanks for comprehensive replies all.

Now to whom do I give the keys and write out a cheque for ££££s to get all that done?

Hello pmba

Please give your location then I am sure advice as to where you take your car & your

cheque book will be forthcoming.

Regards

Keith

Surrey, but happy to travel, Keith 

here’s an alternative view to mull over,  if its an NB face lift in that sort of condition, with no welding at all, and no rust, and low mileage I would try to keep it that way and buy another daily with the 5k and keep that one for best…

+1 for this, and spend a few quid on rust treatment to keep it that way.
