Description

NO MOT & SORN, SO WILL NEED A TRAILER TO TAKE AWAY. MOT: Currently garaged as MOT expired 2020. One of the PAS pipes (the long Cooling Pipe component) burst at end of 2020 and I never got around to repairing it before MOT expired. Purchased in 2011 the car has always been kept in good condition and well maintained.__MODEL: Ltd Edition, Nevada 1.8, 5-spd manual, Cerrion Silver (Green), Blue Mohair Soft Top & un-heated Cloth seats. Nevada Alloys, sport suspension & LSD, Nardi Trim.__OWNERS: Prior to me it had 4 lady owners.__ENGINE: Although SORN, the car starts up first time and the engine runs smoothly. Battery is on regular trickle charge to maintain voltage.__BODYWORK & RUST: There is corrosion reappearing on outer rear edge of sills (professionally repaired each side in 2013). Chassis rails also have signs of slight corrosion. but not flagged in MOTs as an item of concern. Other bodywork parts generally in good condition for the car's age:22yrs. Some minor dimple dents and a slight crease to offside front wing near the indicator. Regularly waxed & polished the car has been kept garaged or covered. __SERVICE HISTORY: I have many receipts for the servicing & repair work. Service lube changes incl. gearshift oil reservoir and LSD sump. Coolant & Engine Oil (Mobil One Long life) changed in 2019. Have completed most of the yearly Oil + Filter changes myself. New clutch plate professionally fitted at 71,218 miles by an MX5 specialist. Engine belts replaced professionally at 83,765 miles in 2018. New Windscreen fitted in 2019.__TYRES: Dunlop Sport MAXX RT 205/45 16 83V tyres all have good tread depth.__INTERIOR: The interior & Cloth seats are in very good condition for age. Mazda Radio/CD player.__SOFT TOP: Original blue plastic tonneau cover included. The original Mohair soft top with glass HRW has been treated periodically with Renovo Colour Restorer & Ultra Proofer Protection products to ensure extended life. The top has no leaks or tears._EXHAUST: Original exhaust which despite inevitable external surface corrosion works fine.__BRAKES: Discs & callipers updated during my ownership, all pads have good depth.__SELLING: SOLD AS SEEN. Sadly I no longer have time to complete the work to get it roadworthy again, but with a little TLC, a service & new PAS pipes this MX5 could once again be a great weekend/daily runner or even a Track car. This Ltd Edition model could also be an ideal base for a classic restoration project. Reg'd: 27/06/2003
