I like MX5s a lot though the rainwater runs off the roof and into the wings, which is fine if the drain holes aren't blocked with leaves and shit. Therefore they rust through the sills betwixt door and rear wheel arch. I had a Mk 2.5 which turned out to be rustier than I thought. It cost as much to get repaired as the car cost me. It was MIL's by that time but it was a cracker of a drive.
There are a couple of Mk1s I've seen recently that are ridiculously low and tucked which is not for me.
