Hi all, I’m new around these parts. I bought the car during Lockdown 1, so about 15 years ago. It’s a 2.0 SportNav in Ceramic.

I’ve always loved cars and longed for something a bit special. Having successfully managed to sell the dream to my better half, we took it for a test drive and never looked back. It’s the most extravagant and rash thing I’ve ever done and I regret nothing. I have to say that I absolutely get it - the attraction of cars like the MX5. I’m lucky to be fairly close to the coast and the days spent bombing along by the sea with the roof down were just a revelation. Even just a quick blast does wonders for clearing my head and making me smile and that is priceless.

Hi Ben and welcome from North Nottinghamshire… Lovely car and in the best colour :slight_smile:
I was 58 when I bought my 2018 ND2 2L SportNav+ last July - The dearest car I’ve ever owned and not that I really needed it - Just wanted it! They are fun pure and simple and no trip is mundane! Enjoy… :slight_smile:

Once you’ve owned an MX5 of any flavour you won’t want to be without one!

Welcome!
You caught the bug. Very nice car. I don’t think I had ever seen ceramic with cream leather, black alloys and black windscreen surrounds.
