I'm not sure Paul.

If you wanted a base car for a Rocketeer conversion, this would be ideal.

The MX5 is a brilliant little car but early cars suffer from rot and people who buy cheap often end up dumping a lot of money into sorting them (or just taking the car to a wrecker)

Price seems a bit strong but not out of the question for anyone wanting a great base for the V6 project. When I last spoke to Bruce from Rocketeer, he had a nice waiting list and the struggle was to find decent donor cars.
