The seller offers for sale a Mazda MX-5 from 2008. This cabriolet is powered by a 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol engine producing 160 hp, paired with a manual transmission. The engine starts without issues, runs smoothly, and produces no blue or white smoke when warm. There are no unusual engine noises reported. The gearbox shifts properly without resistance or abnormal sounds. According to the seller, the car has not been involved in an accident. Recent maintenance includes an oil change and filter replacement, and no immediate expenses are expected. The vehicle has been stored and used responsibly, and it currently has a valid technical inspection. There is a light, superficial appearance of rust on one wheel arch, described as easy to address.
As a cabriolet, this MX-5 is equipped with an electric retractable hardtop, offering the flexibility of open-top driving combined with coupe-like comfort when closed. The roof system is described as functioning properly. There is no separate soft top or removable hard top included, as the vehicle uses the factory-installed electric folding roof configuration.
The Mazda MX-5 is widely recognized as one of the most successful lightweight sports cars ever produced. Since its introduction, it has been praised for its balanced chassis, direct steering, and engaging driving experience. The NC generation added more comfort and power while retaining the playful character that made the model popular worldwide. With its rear-wheel-drive layout and naturally aspirated engine, the MX-5 continues to appeal to driving enthusiasts looking for simplicity and connection to the road. Its reputation for reliability and strong aftermarket support further contributes to its lasting popularity among both new and experienced sports car owners.
