1991 Mazda MX5 basic model review from North America
"Everyone should have one"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The car must have been stored outside before I purchased it so most of the door and window rubber had to be replaced. Put in new battery and alternator.
The car body and interior are flawless. It is hard to believe this vehicle has been driven 19700 kms.
General comments?
I love this car. It handles like my MG midget I had in 1977. I will never get rid of it. My plan is to slowly rebuild it when I retire.
