Odometer - 77, 525 KMs (48, 171 Miles)
This 1992 Mazda MX-5 Eunos is a pretty and clean car that is being offered with no reserve. The Eunos is an imported version of the collectable classic Mazda MX-5, with records showing it was first registered in the UK back in August 1998. Since then, it has had just two previous keepers here in the UK. The odometer reads around 77, 600km – the speedometer reads in mph too – and, being a Eunos Roadster, it has the welcome extra of air con. This model also has some desirable features, including an original Nardi steering wheel and gearlever, and a rear spoiler. The 1, 800cc engine is paired with a five-speed manual gearbox – which, of course, drives the rear wheels for that famous MX-5 drive.
‘L93KUV’ has an MOT until January 2025. The vendor says it comes with plenty of invoices dating back years – indeed, it appears to have all the MOTs backed up. The car has a desirable matching set of premium Continental EcoContact 6 tyres fitted to 14-inch wheels that look in good, clean condition. The engine, transmission, interior and electrics are all said to be in ‘good’ condition, while bodywork and paintwork are ‘average’. The vendor says that it would benefit from a basic refresh “but overall it is a nice car”.
The Mazda MX-5 is the most famous roadster in the world – and the official World Record holder as the best-selling roadster ever, too. Famously inspired by the original Lotus Elan, it was developed by a crack team throughout the 1980s, making its world debut in 1989. The original generation was called NA, with subsequent versions dubbed NB, NC and ND. Global production now easily exceeds one million, and the fanbase for the Mazda MX-5 in all its generations remains enormous – as does the support for enthusiastic owners.
In summary:
Pretty 1992 Mazda MX-5 Eunos
Long-term UK import car with just two previous keepers
