Comments from the seller

EXCITING FEATURES I just don’t use this wonderful Mazda mx5 roadster car enough its mileage has been very low for a couple of years and I feel the need to let someone else enjoy this amazing little gem. Mazda MX5 With chrome surround on the window and chrome rear reversing mirrors “ 14 alloy wheels", original patina except for the rear bumper bar new diff and new radiator this car is ready to go. My car Detailer said it is amazing for it age and won’t last long. It is a Special Interest registration and was approved 3 years ago , I can find the paperwork but David Short Autos did it for me. I have owned this car for 9 years and it has been a pleasure doing so. Driving in the sun with the wind in my hair or a night under lights smelling flowers and BBQs as you go, little “Bluey” has much to offer
