Ok so bought a 1994 eunos 1.8 on saturday, rang up today to insure it and was told its a v limited. So i have been looking on the net for this model but can only find v specials for this year and they are either green or black, my car is blue and it has not been resprayed. Any one got any ideas ?

This link shows you which models came out in each year http://ox.mx5oc.co.uk/guide_eunos.htm

Might depend on what kind of blue your car is, Laguna Blue S-Special or Satellite Blue G or R Limited. I think you'd know if you had an RS.

Thanks for that guys, big help, seems insurance companies class unidentified imports as v limited.
Seems mine may be an s special though im not convinced its laguna blue as i had one before in that colour and this blue just looks different. Will have to find the paint code.

Bargain!

If anyone else has any MX5s they're not sure on, drop me an email with the VIN and I can check it smile

Presume you can't do anything with just the reg?

Thanks

Yeah, can do it with the reg too!

Send it over smile

It's easier with the VIN because it can't change, plates can change but I'm sure it'll be fine!
