I agree with Mark B. The MX5 I had was the best car I've owned - enjoyable to drive all the time. Unlike most other cars it was fun even at legal speeds. Most modern cars, S included, need to be well beyond the legal limit on public roads to be appreciated. It hit the spot for me in a way the S still hasn't - if you've read the write up on the S in the latest EVO I sort of feel the same way.
I'd have another and I like the look of the new one, but when the run outs of the old sport model are selling new for c

Slightly O/T, but I watched the MX5s racing at Donnington yesterday afternoon - hugh pack demonstrating how well regarded the little car is as a cheap entry into motorsport. I left when the 2CVs started and the commentator began explaining how the 2CV driver worked in groups, slipstreaming each other, just to get any speed up at all....
