Hi all

I'm looking for an MX5 - MK1 or MK2 for the summer fun :-)

Whilst we can't name and shame in the forums, can anyone recommend a decent dealer / trader that specialise in MX5s in the North of England (Yorkshire/Lancs/Derbyshire/Notts) - will travel further for an exceptional one.... ?

Many thanks

was there this week having my own repaired

The following I can't vouch for their quality

http://www.mx5city.com/

There was another dealer over your way who's name escapes me now but his website showed them all parked in a field. Hopefully someone else will remember.

Well, North-ish.....

I'm north of leeds so want something inside a 100 miles, though I have seen one online up in Berwick-Upon-Tweed...

Anyone have any experience with him - the adverts are some of the most straightforward that I have seen...

Paul Sheards... think twice. That's all I can say really. Make sure you get all prices in writing, take detailed photos of every part of your car before it goes in, and make sure you tell them they MUST ring you if any extra work needs doing.
