If you're going to get a new MX5, make sure you get the 2019 with 2.0L engine. They raised the horsepower significantly over last years model. You either love the car, or you hate it. I suspect that those who hate the car have never driven one. Yes, they are small and low to the ground...kind of like a big go-cart. Go-carts aren't fast, but they sure do put a smile on your face. Weather permitting...always drive with the top down...because Miata ;)

The concept of this car is the perfect harmony between the driver and the car. I would like to recommend it to women who ride sports cars for the first time. Straightforward handling. Pleasant shift change. Lightweight and nimble driving. An exterior that you can love forever. You can see everything on the scenic winding road in the best weather. I'm using Google Translate, so I'm sorry for strange sentences.

What you don't know, if you don't know these cars, is if they are used all year round they rust to death just like the Mk1, 2 and 3 models... (unless you get it professionally treated). None of the reviews mention this. There are several centres around the UK that specialise on Mx5 repairs, welding, and rust proofing... Make sure if you get an Mx5 thats more than a few years old that you don't assume it's ok underneath and in the wheel arches. Plenty of stories and you tube video of these cars rusting badly and failing their Mot's after 5 or 6 years... Watch out.

I currently own a 18 plate mx5 2.0 sel nav. Great car but I dont trust it in the wet, had some scary moments lol. In the summer with the roof down, its wonderful, but when the lease runs out this aug I wont be renewing. A few factors, one being the Mazda customer service isnt as customer focused as bmw which is what I have always bought. I'll be going back to bmw and lease a bmw m240i, but now atleast as a petrol head I can tick the mx5 off the bucket list.

Every review whinges about tiny boot and no cabin storage. OK it's not a SUV but we use ours for cross Europe trips carrying all personal kit for two plus stand up inside 4 person tent + awning, beds, table, high back chairs, sleeping bags and all the kit for comfortable camping. In the cabin the large centre storage is more useful than any normal "glove box' and the two quite large compartments behind the seats have been ignored. They take DSLR camera plus some lenses as well as tyre pump, some tools, documents and other bits. if you really get desperate, once the roof is down there is a massive space under the cover. enough for two large day sacks and coats. They must just be taken out if the roof is lifted and put behind the seats afterwards which takes a couple of minutes. It's not a family shed on wheels but for two people everything is possible.
