Forlorn Mk1 in Bedfordshire

Anyone on here own or recognise this NA which appears to be merging into the landscape having been on SORN since 2013 ?

And its never failed an MOT, certainly previously loved, hope it can be rescued!

Low mileage(around 61K) and MOT expired on April fools day 2013.
If it has been sat outside for years with no attention and a softtop, I imagine the sills are a mess.

I first spotted it in September 2017 and it looked abandoned then.

I find that so sad… I must be growing soft as I get older.

That needs a note! :joy:. Before it goes camouflage.

Shame it couldn’t have crawled into the nearby barn and become a ‘barn find’ worth loads more of course :wink:

Always find it strange when cars just get abandoned like that, it’s just a waste.

Sell it, give it to a friend, just do something with it…

… I believe that the nearby barn is being or has been converted into living accomodation

It is sad but you know how life can be sometimes.
Other matters take priority and lesser issues like the MX5, perhaps once loved, get marginalised.
Go and leave a note; the owner may well be grateful that someone has shown an interest and an opportunity for them to offload to an enthusuast.
