Mazda MX-5 Limited Edition
The
Limited Edition is based on a standard 1800cc model
and was introduced to celebrate the MX-5's first year
of production. Only 250 units were available between
March and December 1991 and cost £18,249.00 when
purchased new
This
special version was finished in British Racing Green
and sported colour coded 15" BBS alloy wheels
The
interior was nicely trimmed with tan leather seats
and deep pile carpet. Further
enhancements included a wooden steering wheel, hand-brake
grip and gear knob
Each
Ltd Edition model was supplied with a leather owners
wallet and embossed key fob. The leather wallet shared
the same brass plaque that was fitted to the vehicle
dash
This
plaque displayed the vehicles unique production number
and a certificate was also supplied to prove the vehicle's
authenticity
Standard
vehicle specification also included central locking,
electric windows, stainless steel scuff plates and
a powerful Clarion CRX111R radio-cassette above a
distinctive analogue clock
Its
also worth noting that these cars were generally fitted
with a 'stick-on' number plate ... a 'Mazda' decal was
applied to the right side of the front bumper instead
of the normal badge too
It
is also thought that 25 out of the 250 were reserved
for 'tax free sales or personal exports' so there may
have only ever been 225 in the UK
