Description
This is my 1.8 MX-5 SVT Sport in Splash Green. I'm the third owner and the car has done just shy of 60k miles.
Personalised registration not included in sale. Registration number is "PE53VDD".
This car has been a passion project for me with lots of money spent on restoration and modification. Some of the extensive work that has been carried out during my ownership includes:
- Full respray.
- Refurbished front and rear subframes and complete set of refurbished suspension arms.
- New OEM steering knuckles and wheel hubs.
Mods include:
- All suspension bushes replaced with I.L.Motorsport stiffened rubber bushes (Complete 22 Piece Set)
- Differential bushes replaced with I.L.Motorsport stiffened rubber bushes.
- Whiteline anti roll bars and I.L.Motorsport adjustable drop links.
- Zeta CRD monotube coilovers.
- EBC slotted brakes, Brembo pads and braided brake lines.
- Cobalt back box and Gravity 200 cell sports cat. (Still have the stock back box which can be taken too).
- M2 motorsport alloy radiator.
- Exedy lightweight flywheel and clutch kit.
- HID headlight conversion + LED sidelights and plate bulbs.
- I.L.Motorsport clear reflectors.
- Carbon miata quilted hardtop headliner.
- Jass offset plate bracket.
- 17mm spacers.
Bad bits:
Cat N - Car was rear ended at a low speed the day I brought it in 2022, insurance wrote it off. I have photos of the incident. No structural damage and the car received full respray as part of the repair.
EML is on due to sports cat causing catalyst efficiency code.
Release bearing is noisy.
Small areas of minor corrosion (See photos)
1 Key
Partial service history. Plenty of receipts. Has been serviced annually under my ownership with Castrol Edge. Gearbox and LSD have had oil changes. Spark plugs and coil packs replaced. Timing belt and water pump have been done too. Shell V-Power E5 used for entire ownership.
I will really miss this car and I'm sure a small part of me will regret selling it. But I recognise the time has come for me to move on and try something new! :)
