The Mazda MX-5 is a small two-seater sports car, currently in its third generation, and approaching a million of them have been sold worldwide. It is a very attractive car with simple looks which belie its very high level of sophistication.
During its history there have been a number of different engines available, In the current generation which was launched in 2005 there is a choice of two petrol units the most powerful of which develops around 160 bhp.
In some ways the MX-5 can be considered to have a relatively modest performance for a sports car. It takes almost 8 seconds to sprint from rest to 62 mph, and many saloon cars will do better than that, but raw pace is not what this car is about.
What the MX-5 is really about is having fun, and driving it really is. It is rear wheel drive and handles almost as well as a Porsche Boxster. On a winding country road it really excels. It is brisk, responsive and corners as if it was on rails.
