Default Cheap mx5 donor

Seen this on facebook if anyone was interested £500.....


Mazda MX5 mk2

£500

The vehicle runs (needs jump starting due to being stood so long) however, was involved in an accident with a bush/field which caused a lot of panel damage which isn't cost effective to repair.

Most panels are accident damaged however, some on the n/s will repair. Bonnet + boot lid not accident damaged. Headlamps are intact with the lugs un-damaged.

This car had a second hand engine fitted by AK Automotive around a year ago (at a cost of about £400) and hasn't even covered 1000 miles since.

All 4 tyres (rainsports) have at least 6mm of tread and from driving the car, the wheels seem straight (albeit needing a bit of a refurb).

The car has HSD Dualtech coilovers which have covered about 2-3000 miles - again, upon driving the car they do not seem damaged.

MX5parts stainless exhaust fitted which doesn't look damaged. The standard centre section has sheared at the middle box so will need replacing.

New disks + pads all round and new rear calipers fitted less than 2k miles ago.

Could be driven away (once jump started) however, due to the centre exhaust section being damaged, it will be loud and not recommended. I would suggest it is trailered/towed etc. When the car needed transporting to AK Automotive for the new engine I used Birtley Recoveries - They were very competitive price wise and provided a great service.

The car is in Hartlepool and can be viewed if needs be - Needs to be gone as soon as really, as it's been sat on the drive for a while whilst I've been debating on what to do with it.

Oh, there's even half a tank of fuel in it!!
