| Great write up, thoroughly enjoyable read. I am in the market to purchase a new car and before put my money down on a new Park Lane "S", took a look at the new MX5, having just won Australian Wheels Car of the Year.
As a 6'1" aussie, I couldn't fit into the previous model MX5 and had heard that Mazda had increased the room in the new model. (Well I could fit, but was sitting "on" the steering wheel). Got in the new model, moved the seat all the way back, sat down, and......still couldn't fit comfortably. Still no leg room.
That was it decision made, now to order the new MINI.
Have fun in the MX5. |
