Pop ups vs baby viper:
Still massively prefer the look of the MK2, but would happily take an MK1 also!
124s are an option, though they're a bit more chunky like the MK3 MX-5 and so rare over here that's it's rarely worth considering. Will just wait a few more years for the MK4s to become a bit cheaper and grab one of those if the MK2 continues its natural water/salt-based weight-reduction programme.

Well you are wrong...pop up lights for THE look.... and maximum pedestrian injury potential. MK1 MR2 and X1/9 are still favs and the MX5 is the extension of this for me.
I know that IAD on the south coast developed the MK1, and my opinion made the MX5 a brilliant handling car, was much carried over to the MK2, or did it go the the Mr2 route of making it bigger but not better.

Meh to the MK2 'cos who cares, no pop up lights there fore not cool.
Just but the fiat 124 spider as it will cheaper that the equivalent mazda.
