My mk1 mx5 (green , tan , nardi wheel) is much more fun to drive than my clio 172.
Mine is a bit rough paintwork wise but it has no rust, has been 100% reliable and as it has a roll bar / cage thing and adjustable suspension handles really well
Mine only has 62k on it and is prob only worth a grand, they are a bargain

I love the interior, you defiantly got the best spec, jut need them minilites
Yep will be on the look out for some wheels but I'm in no rush at all.

Bloody right. Feels like such a classic car purely because of the body colour and the style of interior

No rust is the most important bit. People seem to see past the other stuff and prioritise one that is solid. They know that the engines are bulletproof so look more towards the chassis. So if yours is all metal then you'd be surprised what you could get for it.

Yeah I was told about this but I ended up with Admiral because of multicar with the misses. Still only £400 for us both to be able to drive it so not bad really. Was expecting it to be £600-700.
