- The car I’m offering for sale is an MX5 MK2 1.8S 1998 / R
- The car is located near Wolverhampton
- The price is £4500
I have owned this car for about 8 years, I purchased it from a retired doctor (1st owner) who kept it garaged, he told me the only time it came out of the garage was to be washed, hence the very low mileage. I think when I purchased it, it had 34k on the clock.
I only use it during the summer, as I have another car and a work van and its kept either in my garage or at work in my factory unit
I don’t believe there are many cars of this age / mileage and condition available now
It hasn’t been modified in any way other than the chrome hoops I fitted behind the head rests, but I still have the original wind deflector in the boot along with. In addition I have a fifth matching alloy wheel.
The car is completely original, still has the original stereo with face off storage box and the original tonneau cover in the boot
Since I have owned it, I have had a
- New clutch
- Cam Belt / Water Pump
- Mohair Hood (Paul @ The Soft Top Shop did it)
- new brake callipers (due to lack of use)
- ABS Sensor
- Gearbox top gator
Its has a good MOT history and has no advisories that relate to the dreaded rust
the body work is in good condition considering its age, it isn’t showroom condition but with a little TLC could be very close, I have just had all the outer sills done recently as there was a slight sign they were beginning bubble and I wasn’t prepared to sell it like that, I have photos of the repairs carried out and showing the inner sills are fine
This car really does drive like a car that has only done 38k
I would love it to be owned by someone who will love it like I do, the only reason I am selling it is I don’t use it and it needs to be used. I promise myself every year I will use it more, and don’t due to work commitments
I am going to advertise it here first for a couple of weeks, as I really would like it to go to another MX5 lover
