Hi. We are new members living in the south west of France. I recently bought (in the UK) a MX5 originally imported from Japan. It is a 1990 model and I believe is a "V Special" ( the garage where we bought it had no idea of the different models) with an automatic gearbox. It is painted...

Had to get a sensible car for work but missed the MX5 so much, went and bought an even older MK1! Just through MOT and road legal but lots to do, will be reading the forums for advice. :auto-layrubber:

My new purchase mx5 se 1992 66000 miles non import plenty of service and paperwork.Has original se keyring and hardtop

Hi all,

In the past week I've popped my MX5 cherry and become the very happy owner of a 2005 1.8.

It's in decent shape overall minus some cosmetic issues. I've changed the plugs, oil and filter so far and put new disks and pads on it, just a binding rear caliper to sort and then it's good to go....

Recently bought myself automatic eunos, have started to slowly renovate it. Mainly want to get it back to original(ish) spec but will be updating it slightly. It's 92 and I've added a cabin brace and windblocker from a mk2. The dash is coming out shortly so I can recover it with some recycled...

Hello all.

Im having a ton of fun with my first 5. A 2005 NC 2.0l

Its taking some time to get used to coming from a long list of FWD cars.

First things first, i wanted to bring it to the modern era.. So a new head unit was fitted allowing hands free calls, music streaming and ipod...

Hello
I 'm Nick from Greece, 2 months with my mk2.5 and lovin it. It has been a dream of mine for years, finally got around to it!
1.8 with Torsen, my first RWD!
New oil all around, Mobil 1 for the engine and redline GL4 transmission, GL5 diff, already feels like another car.

Nothing actually...

Recently became the owner of a 1600 mk1 import in great condition. One owner since it was imported in 1998 and they have looked after it so well! Pulled up behind Wayne a few days ago and was introduced to menders. Looking forward to getting involved with a few meets etc. As I said the car is mint...

New to this, I purchased a 1999 mk2 for my wife's birthday and I guess for me to play with. This has turned into a task having now found rot in the forward chassis rails, oil leaks on top of the general repairs. the task begins.

Hi, I'm new to this sort of thing, so please bear with me... I have a "Garage Find" 1990 NA grey import passionately referred to as Dog Face! Currently Sorn and has been for the last 3 years. I was offered this car rather than it owner paying to have it taken away. Having travelled 30Km...

Hi Guys,

I'm new to MX5 ownership, previously having driven a Smart Roadster for 8+ years.

I've had my 2.0 NC1 for a couple of months, and really like the car so far, but it's using a lot of oil.

I have my fingers crossed it's just the PCV valve.

Could anyone recommend a garage in Wigan that...

Hi Forum,

I have just exchanged a couple of messages with a guy on another forum who suggested that I join this forum. I own a daily 1992 Mk 1 which is my 2nd Mk 1. I commented that there wasn't many of us in Wigan and surrounding areas. If there are any meets or local drive outs, please give me a...

Hi
I was formerly 'essjaydee' and had a Mk2.5.

I am back and thought would start over. Just bought a Mk4 Arctic edition and collect on 11th March :-)

Some snapshots to start with>>

Good morning all, just thought I'd pop in and say hello. My name is Jim and maybe one of the oldest on here (71), but nonetheless enthusiastic MX-5 owner. I am just bought my 4th 5, a MK3 Launch Edition with BBR upgrade, BC coilovers & a few other little mods. I have previously owned a MK2...

I am wondering if there is an easy way to replace the disintegrated rubber gaiters on the Bilstein Shock Absorbers. I have the four new gaiters ready to fit but I am a little daunted about the task if doing it the way the manual says. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi All
New member here - first day off in ages, sunny and noticed water leak whilst doing checks. Anyone replaced the small L shaped metal pipe below thermostat. Mine has mall pin hole leak. Arrrgghh. Head hurts trying to work out what to do!

Hi folks, new to the forum but owned my UK 1.8 MX5 for over 10years, in the NW (Warrington).

Been a great fun 2nd car when the space in the Volvo XC90 is not needed! Must confess to it being mostly a summer car with the odd track day thrown in.
My mate has a Caterham and swears by it but i'm sure...

Just joined up on recommendation.... have a 2001 mk2.5 import. Just got front strut brace and lower bracing from ACT and set of coilovers to fit... sits too high at minute. Fitted TT style roll bars and hate the orange reflectors.
All tips gratefully received. Cheers

Hey everyone,

Just saying hello. I'm a long time Roadster owner! I own a 1994 s special with a mini supercharger setup. Its been off the road for about 4 years while I transitioned from a Uni student into a married man / purchased a house / got my career underway :)

However, the time has finally...

Hi, ended up buying a Eunos the other week at the age of 57. Work colleagues think i'm going through a mid-life crisis. I would say an 'old age crisis'! Have since bought a couple of classic minis as well - am I losing the plot?!

Hey all, had my mazda 1 year now and it's in serious need of repair. I don't have a garage so I'm just waiting for summer. Names Cameron from West Yorkshire.

PROBLEMS:
gear stick gator is perished (previous owner used a glove)
Rear sills + front is rusting.
Drivers side window has no strings...
