I wouldn't be surprised if these are the cars that will be displayed at the Festival of Speed at Goodwood. I looked at applying myself but I was due to be away this week when they wanted the car.

That BBR turbo is a Le Mans one. Very rare although a bit marmite in the aesthetics department.

Not being hot on MX5's I assume that's the orange / green one.

Love it personally. Kit and wheels look superb as well. Very smart.

Love it personally. Think it would be better still with the body solid orange and a green roof.

Supposed to look like this....



Worth an awful lot of money now apparently (relatively!).

I suspect it's a photo shoot for the 25th Anniversary this year and yes, could well be FoS related.

Yup released to celebrate their win at Le Mans with this

There was a very cool MX5 at the Goodwood Festival of Speed a couple of years ago with c250BHP and beefed up suspension, brakes, handling etc.

If they ever made that actual car there would be a rush of orders..........perhaps it is being rolled out again
