Description

Offered here is a first series Mazda MX-5 (NA, known as Miata in North America) from the German British Racing Green edition. This was the first special edition Mazda ever built for the MX-5, limited to 360 cars for the German market and sold out shortly after its release. List price in 1991: from DM 41,250, roughly

EUR 21,100 at the official conversion rate.

Please note that the British Racing Green edition was released in different volumes per country. The German first run of 360 cars is the one offered here.

Equipment

  • Anti-lock braking system
  • Momo leather steering wheel, 320 mm, with German type approval (ABE)
  • Remus rear silencer, aftermarket, not a factory part
  • Wind deflector
  • Alpine cassette deck with six disc CD changer
  • Soft top with glass rear window
  • Alloy wheels with 195/50 R15 tyres, entered in the vehicle documents

Condition

The paint is original and well preserved for its age. The car is free from rust. It has never been driven in winter and has never seen road salt. The soft top is watertight and fully functional, with visible signs of use.

Maintenance

No deferred maintenance. Timing belt and seals were replaced at 97,600 km, and the car has covered around 2,100 km since.

Documentation

The 2021 inspection report under section 23 StVZO is available and certifies the original condition worth preserving.

The NA generation is now regarded as a collector car, and good examples are becoming harder to find. This edition differs from the standard model in paint and interior trim, technically it matches the standard specification. I took the car over in October 1995 and have owned it for more than 30 years.

There is no service booklet, but I can give first hand information on almost the entire history of the car.

Anyone looking for an original, unmodified car with a traceable history will find it here.

Viewing and test drive by appointment at any time. Questions in English (E-Mail) are equally welcome.

Private sale. Sold as seen, with no warranty, no guarantee and no right of return, as permitted for private sellers under German law. No trade, no part exchange. The car is sold for collection in Germany. Export and transport can be arranged by the buyer, and I am happy to assist with the German deregistration.
