Description

87,800 km
ASI e CRS
Very well preserved
Numerous options and hard top
Conceived in the late seventies by American journalist Bob Hall, who proposed the idea to Mazda R&D managers, and put into production in the late eighties, the MX-5 is a light and very well-balanced two-seater dry convertible, strongly inspired by the British and Italian spider tradition of the sixties and seventies, in particular the Lotus Elan, the Triumph Spitfire and the Alfa Romeo Duetto. Also known as the Mazda Miata, the Eunos Roadster. was produced in four generations, identified by chassis number: NA (1989-1997), NB (1998-2001) NBFL updated version of the NB from (2001-2005), NC (2005-2015) and ND (2015-in production).

The second version, recognisable by the numbering beginning with NB was offered for sale in 1998 with slightly modified external dimensions at 3955 mm in length, 1680 mm in width and 1235 mm in height. The chassis is the same as the previous version, reinforced at various points for greater rigidity. The aesthetics underwent numerous changes, starting with the elimination of the pop-up headlights, the total modification of the body lines, as well as the interior. In 2001 during the restyling (NB FL) the interior was revised with the adoption of new seats with integrated headrest, new console and centre tunnel, new steering wheel and new instrumentation. The bodyshell also received some modifications, being stiffened in this latest version, especially the torsion sense.

The superb car we are presenting today appears in superb condition, having belonged to a single owner until 2021 and since then to the current collector. It is rust-free and equipped with numerous sought-after options, such as a glass rear window with electric defroster in excellent condition, tonneau cover and the precious hard top. There is also air conditioning and the original Clarion car radio, including electrically operated aerial and operating manual. Jealously preserved car, in mint condition given the very low mileage of 87800 km. Numerous maintenance invoices are available.
On-board tool kit, all supplied technical manuals and original double keys are present. Equipped with ASI CRS. A sporty and modern car with vintage charm, the ideal compromise for the summer car to be used open but also comfortable and functional for year-round use.
