2004 Mazda MX5 Euphonic review from UK and Ireland
"An outstanding car, that is as cheap as chips to run"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
In the four years I have owned this car from new, I haven't had to change as much as a light bulb. Routine servicing with no other work required. Exceptional.
General comments?
An extremely reliable car; it looks good, and drives and handles well. Not the fastest considering it's a 1.8i, but that's not the reason for buying it.
Very economical to run with reasonable insurance costs.
The Euphonic is one of several MX5 limited editions however, this must be the sportiest looking special edition they realised. Striking in Velocity Red (only 500 manufactured in this colour), with matching black and red leather trim finished off with graphite 16" wheels.
My only minor issue is it seams to eat tyres. Would have expected to have got another 5000k miles out of them.
