Oooh I think I saw this today (is that possible?) outside the Ford/Mazda garage in Gatwick. It was like a Cherry Red in colour. That and spotted my first ever Tesla, not a bad day.

I'd say it's unlikely. They won't be over here for a while yet.

I'm tempted to take a drive up and see if (whatever it was) is still there. I've never had much time for the MX-5, but this looked really nice.

Errr,looks proper st. Like when kit car makers get adventurous and hash up some badly styled convertible with Peugeot stock headlights, LED ring lights at the back, big gaping fish-gob of a grille and a pram top.
st.
But I bet it drives like a dream.

Can't help that the new MX5 looks very like the old BMW Z3, check out the line of that boot, the proportions etc

Possibly the 25th Anniversary Edition. They've done that in a similar Cherry Red.
