MX250 Donor For Sale

20 Oct 2013, 3:45pm
If advertising my car on here is against forum rules I apologise and understand if moderators remove it. I just wasn't quite sure where to post this!

I have a 1993 Eunos Automatic for sale. It has covered approximately 80,000 miles and runs well. A new cambelt was fitted last year and a number of unused service items will be included in the sale.

The 'shell is in good condition and has never been welded as far as I can see. There are now a few bubbles as the rear end of one sill but no evidence of any previous repairs. The car's overall exterior cosmetic condition is quite tired, with faded Mazda 'Classic Red' paintwork.

The interior is tidy with good (cloth) seats. The o/s electric window requires a repair. There is a hood frame but no hood cover as I had intended to replace it.

The MOT lapsed a few months ago and ill health has prevented me from doing the work required. I feel it is better suited to becoming a donor as it always drove well and spiritedly - don't let the Automatic Gearbox put you off!

I'm happy to photograph the car from any angle and will endeavour get some good images next weekend. Sorry that this is a bit of a cursory advert but given the car's location (Bournemouth) I thought it might be worth posting it now in case anybody is heading passed towards the Exeter show next weekend. Also ideally suited for viewing if you're popping along to Tribute themselves.

Questions and viewings entirely welcome. I'll make you a cuppa and you can poke and prod (the car!) to your heart's content.

£400.00 ono

Please contact me via PM if interested.

Thank you!

£400 is cheap enough for any donor if it will pass an MOT, the auto gearbox will probably put most people off though...

It's quite a viable car really, I just think it may have a better future as a donor as it requires a new hood and the electric window repairing.

I've owned quite a few MX5s and honestly prefer the Automatics! Could make for a stylish (when rebodied as a 250) daily for someone.

I'll charge the battery and get it moved in readiness for some pictures next weekend.

Bump!

This is still available. I replied to several PMs expressing interest but nobody has viewed the car yet. It is fully accessible for viewings now and I can start the car etc. Anybody is welcome to drop by for a look, just give me a shout via PM.

PS Happy to sell the GRP hardtop separately if anybody needs one now the weather is chilly!
