Hey everyone, i’m Phil from Stoke on Trent. Brought the wife a Mazda MX-5 NC as a birthday treat (that’s what I’ve told her anyway) :wink: anyhow we love it! It’s a 1.8 manual mk3 or NC as I believe you call it. It’s the hardtop which is great. Looking forward to being a member. Here’s a few pics

Yep defo! Dont judge lol when you see it. Defo has a few small paint work marks that I will get sorted sometime within the next year along with a full undersell job needed to be done. Just not sure whether to d the underneath myself and use waxoil or this lanoguard I keep hearing so much about, apparently is quick to apply and can be done yearly

No judging here. Mine isn’t perfect to be honest, rust on the rear arch, underneath - the underseal is pretty old and is starting to come away.

As I’ve only had it 8 months, I’m contemplating getting work done to the body and other bits to make it better. Paintwork needs doing as well. I might as well buy a new one but then I’ll miss the NC as it does drive really well, doesn’t eat oil for breakfast either!
