If you scroll down fast on the second picture the stones on the drive makes you dizzy.

Looks like you got the pics sorted yourself mate - good job.

Sweet looking car. It'll certainly attract more attention now you've got the pics up.

Good luck with the sale.

You might want to check on the size of the alloys, if these are the standard ones for an Icon (which they look like they are) I'm fairly certain they are 15" not 16".

Very nice car, good luck with the sale.

OK no probs

We are on our second MX5, the current one being a MK2.5 1.8i, these are fantastic cars, I can't ever imagine being without one.

Allan, if it wasnt the for the fact i cant get away with only two doors, i would have this for myself!
I've driven this a few times and its a real drivers car, the feel of the car transmitted through your bum and the steering wheel, coupled with the low driving position is pure smiles for miles.
after the inititial hope no-one sees me in this hairdresser mobile, i think bollox to you all this is too much fun.

Not sure about the price, if you find someone that wants an Icon, then you should be OK. One owner cars with excellent history are worth a premium in my opinion.
