Just wondering if anyone on here is running one? I'm considering it, although most likely be changing to an S2000 as a cheaper alternative.

From what I remember reading on http://www.mx-5.com/ there were issues with them.

From what I remember reading, the issues were due to a company using a map from America that caused issues? Cosworth's £5k turn-key solution uses their own 3D map that doesn't have this issue, apparently.

I think there are a few of them around. Never seen one on here though. Maybe on Nutz or OC.

Your memory is better than mine! ( but I can go upstairs to get confused )

I've got one. Had it converted by BBR in September last year. It's been a great little car, does around 31-32 mpg (my journey to work is mostly NSL roads), and has cost nothing more than routine servicing.
Regards dd.

Brilliant, thanks! Can you message me with your email address, as I'm after a bit more information about it? I tried PM'ing you but it says you wont allow it!

As above, not the BBR implementation.
