A friend of mine has her 1999 MX5 up for sale....i thought fellow locostbuilders could be interested in the car as potential donor for new build or parts
its a 1.8, 65,000 miles, got a current mot, good runner, used daily, bodywork is shabby but rest is good...excellent for a project or kit!
She needs to move it on quickly as an newer car has been purchased.
she's looking for £500

Which i think is good value!

If only she was closer.....
However if doesn't manage to sell it ask her to contact AK Automotive in Rowlands Mill linky
NTDWM but all-round good guys.
If they don't know anyone interested the may buy it to break and it'll do other owners a favour by adding to the parts pool.

How shabby is the bodywork - I would be interested in it as a runner rather than a donor. U2U inbound.

Not an MX5 fan myself, but it does sound like a good donor car for someone.

i'll try to get further info and pictures of car later today

hard and sof tops, both good, mot till april, driver seat worn.

If it's £500 including the hard top and the number plate that's a bargain I wish I was closer .

the only reason im not buying it myself is because ive got nowhere to put it... cheap track car or donor car

Providing the front chassis rails and rear arches are sound that's got to be a bargain (hardtop's alone go for not far short of the asking price) - quick someone bite her hand off.....
Having said that about the chassis rails to a Locoster with a Mig welder and the fact that repair sections are available it's not too difficult a job by all accounts.
Nick if you fancy it I'll take you out in my s/c Mk1 - that should change your mind!

Would buy that in a heartbeat if it weren't so bloomin far away

car has now been SOLD!
