Our Cars

Our 1966 Austin Healey 3000 MKIII BJ8 was part of the last batch of the Big Healeys. It benefits from a prettier later cockpit layout, centre change gearbox and the luxury of wind-up windows rather than side screens, making the roof much easier to operate.

The Mazda MX-5 — also known as the Miata in some markets — is one of the world’s most famous sports cars. It is known for its lightweight design, rear-wheel-drive layout, reliability, and pure driving enjoyment.

Quick Overview

• First introduced: 1989
• Manufacturer: Mazda UK
• Layout: Front-engine, rear-wheel drive
• Body style: Two-seat convertible roadster
• Known for near 50:50 weight distribution and lightweight handling

The MX-5 was inspired by classic British sports cars like the Lotus Elan but with modern Japanese reliability.

It became the best-selling two-seat sports car in history.

Generations

• Pop-up headlights
• Simple analogue feel
• Lightweight chassis
• Small naturally aspirated engines

The NA is now considered a modern classic.

Second Generation — NB (1998–2005)

Rather than outright power, the MX-5 focuses on driver involvement and momentum driving.

Engines & Performance

Most MX-5s use naturally aspirated four-cylinder engines.
