It's with a heavy heart that my wife's car is up for sale. As secure as cable ties are, I'm not sure that they should be used to fix a 1 year old to a roll cage, so something with more seats, more ISOfix, and less fun is apparently required. 1998 R MX5 - Japanese import 68k miles, although this will go up as it's still in use. 1.6i - 120bhp 'Chaste White' - rare colour as only available on imports. Tax until the end of August MOT until Feb next year Basic factory fitted stuff: Electric Windows, PAS, ABS, AC, Heated glass rear window. The good bits TR Lane GPV Roll Bar with additional harness bar (compatible with the glass rear window - far less chance of becoming a human pancake should the worst happen, and stiffens up the chassis very noticeably) ABT 'A3' wheels (16x7.5 et30) K&N Air Filter from a speedboat. Aftermarket springs. Cambelt, water pump, and aux belts changed about 5k ago. Some spares included, such as original airbox, couple of coil packs, some ignition leads, a few sensors, steering wheel boss, and a spare cam cover if you'd like to paint it up to look all shiny. Serviced about 3k ago - new plugs, fully synthetic oil, filter. Bad bits (I'm not good at selling cars as I tend to be a little too honest): Only advisory at the recent MOT was a worn front drop link, which is on order and so will be done shortly. Rear arches are solid, front chassis rails are solid, sills are starting to show some signs of corrosion, but according to the MOT tester 'there's a good few years in 'em yet'. This is basically par for the course with an MX5. Hood has some splits - with a bit of duct tape it's weatherproof Runs faultlessly, as you'd expect from a 68k car. Very tidy inside, good bodywork. Full set of pics here: ForSale Photos by Simon_r_hill | Photobucket We're after £1650, which is pennies for something with a long MOT and a whole lot of summertime fun to give. If you'd like to bring your own wheels I'll knock £200 off the price, and another £200 if you don't want the roll bar (but I'll need the time to remove it). Swaps/PXs will be entertained, but only for something entertaining. Car is based about 5 miles from Stratford Upon Avon. Thanks Si
