I bought a mk2 mx5 a couple of months ago to have a go at drifting.

Paid £800 off ebay with 12mths tax 6 mths tax with 80,000 on the clock.

Insured it a couple of days ago for £600 so all in it comes in under your budget.

It's light, nible, loves to go sideways and everything works!

I looked round for a while and anything with a name to it came at a price...
