I saw that one already, the body work is really bad. Not a panel on the thing is straight! She had a good whack at the front at some point in her life, all the tell tale signs are there. The rad fan is constantly running which I thought was abit dodgy. Elec arial is missing from it, Roof is damage repaired and not very well in my opinion. The guy was really stuck up about it. He would not take a cent less then 2k for it. interior was scruffy, It's only worth 1,500 or 1600 with the state of the body work!. Abit shakey on startup but it drove ok. Despite this thing having a new NCT I thought it was a poorly cared for junker of a thing. One of the worst ones I have seen during my search. I didn't bother making him an offer I just walked away from it..Too ignorant of a fella to deal with. The mileage on the add is incorrect as the car has 220,000 km's on the clock.

I am having an awful difficult time trying to find a clean mx5, I'm surprised there is so much ragged crap out there. I would expect to have this problem while searching for a Honda civic, not from somthing nice like an MX5.

I may go and have a look at this one here Seems cheap for a 96 and abit too clean? Makes me think he is trying to hide somthing.

I have a 1995 1.8 Navy Blue, suede seats, a chrome roll bar, adjustable shocks, K & N air filter, front tensioning strut & Momo steering wheel.

Just under 84000 KM

Passed NCT in December.

Also recently got rust removed from door sills (a common problem with older cars), front/back bumper respray and got the whole body re-laquered so it's looking pretty good.

I would be looking for €3600 if you're interested.

The reason I am selling is because the roof has been slashed again for the 4th time in 6 years, I do not have a garage and I am getting tired of fixing this. I should be able to get roof replaced on insurance so it would be done before you get it.
