It breaks my heart to write this advert but due to the re-aggravation of an old injury I can no longer drive a manual for any length of time without pain.
It is a restored 1994 Mazda Eunos Roadster V-Ltd in great condition.
£5500
This is a wonderful example of a well loved and fastidiously maintained MX5. As you can see from the photographs, this car has been extensively restored and has been garage stored ever since. This is a very reluctant sale and I would love to be able to keep enjoying it and watch her value continue to rise but unfortunately I’m not in a position to have a car in the garage but not be able to drive her.

I have a folder of 100s of photos from the restoration which will be passed on to the new owner as well as reams of receipts and invoices for all the work completes dating back to 2008.
It is registered as a Cat N due to paint falling inside the cabin a couple of months ago - I managed to get most of the paint off (there is still some on the passenger seatbelt which I was planning on replacing). Unfortunately the aforementioned injury was aggravated by the repeated movement of cleaning the paint - oh the irony. I have photos of the damage which I will share with serious buyers or you can check out my thread here. As a result, the car isn’t perfect (if it were, it’d be a 11k car easily) but it’s great where it matters - last year Anaud Vlad under sealed it (receipts for £1400) and he commented that it is one of the best he’s seen in all the years he has been treating them. It has wanted for nothing as the intention was always to take it to my grave.
