Bit of a travel but i've been winning this for a few days. I love the V specs & would paint the car & change the wheels if i won it.

Given the distance i've bid a monkey & winning but no more, plenty nearer.
If it goes then it goes but i do fancy it.

I've only got £500 (a monkey) on it Pete. He said the sevice history is sketchy so the mileage could be 168,000.

Seat bolster seems very worn for only 68k & fuel wise it'll cost me £150 ish to collect both ways plus the thrust bearing, rocker cover gasket & repaint. I love the V specs but there's plenty around to choose from. :y

£500 isn't much even for a rough MX5 especially now its getting warmer, if you had started looking around October time there were a few bargains to be had, now MGFs are a different story ;)
