An incredibly rare example of the Mazda MX5 NC, a Sport Recaro Edition, believed to be one of only 48 UK cars sold. An initial 30 were imported in 2013, with a further 18 in 2014 that were apparently destined to be upgraded to Jota spec by Lodge Mazda. However, take up was very poor with only 4 cars being converted, and it’s believed that even 2 of those had the Jota upgrades removed once press duties had been completed.
This example is finished in sparkling metallic Crystal White with contrasting Brilliant Black roof, has had only 2 owners and covered 20k miles. Specified with the following equipment from new:
Half leather/Half Alcantara Recaro heated sports seats
Powered Retractable Hardtop
6 Speed gearbox
Limited slip differential
Bilstein shock absorbers
17” alloy wheels finished in Anthracite
Bose sound system
Electric windows
Electric mirrors
Cruise control
The NC version of the MX5 is a great example of a usable, cost-effective sports car and has sold very well over the years meaning there are no shortage of cars on the second-hand market. However, this example stands out against the competition due to rarity, low mileage, and superb general condition. At any given time, there are 6-8 Anniversary models on sale – we cannot remember the last time seeing a Recaro Edition for sale, and we are confident it is amongst the best in market.
