The cheap ones have been scrapped and what is left at the lower end show some terrible repairs.
But it was satisfying drilling out the spot welds while the previous repairs were badly welded and filler on two different cars but replacing the inner, middle and outer cils. Weekend a side including patching the floors.

Yeah definitely. That age Japanese cars and especially imports just didn't cope with British climate and salt roads.
But that's why I'd like it as a long term project, I'd strip it to the shell and repair or replace from the ground up. My dream would be to fully restore one to factory level. 92 because it's the year I was born and I'd keep it until ICE becomes unfeasible and strip it down again in 10/15 years and electric convert it when parts are cheaper.
Anyway just a pipe dream
I'd still love to restore a '92 MX5 one day as a long term project. Not in London though
