The NB coupe does come up for sale from time to time I believe. I quite like this Type A version, but a bit too expensive for me.
Very pricey, rare indeed I would say but it’s looking in need (in my eyes) of a little clean up to command a high price.
Well “rare” but there is at least one other yellow coupe in the UK (the others being a technically rarer Type E version. And this has been for sale for at least a year.
Sounds like the seller might have paid over the odds for it. Its a really niche market, like the M2s. My M2-1002 was one of a 100 made, but really no interest in the UK, hence its ended up in Italy. This car might have gone to Miataland if it were for sale 2-3 years ago, but I suspect Andreas isn’t looking to add to the collection for the moment.
Curious about the large amounts of yellow floorpan over spray. Probably no more than a careless sill freshner. It looks really solid. 75k miles is not bad at all really. As in all these things, it’s hardly a classic and only worth what someone will pay bit it’d not be me. It would have to be sub 20K miles & factory fresh or close. I wish!![]()
Very niche agreed. I have to say that I thought this one looked pretty solid from the photos. The 160 bhp engine should give plenty of beans and the body structure a bit more rigidity. A nice car for the collector.
