Product Description

Arguably, the Mazda MX-5 was single-handedly responsible for the revival of the sports car market. Examples of this popular roadster are now plentiful and affordable on the second-hand market. This practical guide provides expert advice on how to breathe new life into a used and perhaps tired example of this modern-day classic. From preventative maintenance, to the renewal of worn components and details of known problems and how to fix them, the clearly written, comprehensively illustrated text provides all the information required to enjoy an MX-5 on a budget.

Invaluable repair guide5
Having owned 5 NA Miata Mx5's, and owning pretty much every written publication dedicated to the car, I'm fairly familiar with both the car and other publications available.....and this is certainly one of the best yet released. While it doesn't cover the breadth of jobs that the Rod's Manual does- the tasks it approaches are common projects for anyone who owns an older Miata, for example replacing a soft top. All tasks are explained in detail using easy to understand text and step by step colour photo's. In fact the entire book is in colour making it exceptional value when you consider that it is a hardcover book.

This book is an essential addition to any Miata MX5 nut's collection, and takes pride of place in my automotive library.

Great photos.4
I wasn't particularly impressed by the first chapters about Miata history, etc. But the later photos were invaluable in helping me learn how to perform maintenance on my Miata. Definitely a worthwhile purchase for a beginner.
