Advantages: Good fun

Disadvantages: If you don't like fun not for you

People often see the MX-5 as a sporty little number for the girls. Having spent the last week cruising around, hood down in a period of rare sunshine, I can say that this car is greaaatttt!!!!!!!!!
It grips the road like a beauty and has a great little punchy engine that just bursts away at the lights. It also catches the eye and looks sleek, sporty but most of all darn good fun.
OK, it might not have the power of a Golf GTI but the feeling of almost sitting on the floor more than compensates for that. It may not feel comfortable at 100mph on the M1 but the speed limit is 70mph and it gets you to that speed with such a shot of adrenaline that you you just don't care.
At around £6500 / £7000 you can get a MX-5 at only 4 years old and around 40 000 miles. It's not a so called 'Super car' with monstrous power but it is a super car that is a great little drive.
