Hi folks
I’m new to the forum
I live in Sutton Coldfield and I’m looking for advice on which mx5 to buy for track and occasional road use.
My budget is around £6k
I don’t want to modify the car much. Just want a roll bar / cage and harness. If it’s possible to attach harness to roll bar and keep standard seats, that would be preferable. If not, I want buckets too.
I’m 6ft 1, so cabin size is a factor, especially if the roll cage eats into space.
I’ve heard of issues with warning lights and mot failure if fitting buckets in an nc mx5. Is this so? Any way around this?
Also heard the roll bar on the NC lacks rear stays, so a cage is the safer option?
Does the NA/NB accommodate roll bars with rear stays?
I don’t mind losing the electric folding soft top function. Happy to stick a hardtop on if it accommodates a roll cage / bar.
With this in mind, any advice / thoughts on which mx5 generation to go for? (na/nb/nc)
