when did these start getting this cheap?

 

i like the shape, but the stories of those mondeo engines destroying themselves if the oil isn't up to the max kinda put me off.

 

plus did this version finally sort the rust issue from the mark 2's?

Nope, Probably just as rusty as a good mk2 (despite being ~8 years younger) and don't handle like a '5 should.

No! My one was as rusty as fook underneath and it was newer than that one! Still doesn't seem to be any protection underneath at all. I was quite appalled at mine which was one of the reasons I got rid of it so soon! Mine never used a drop of oil though and went well, I liked the engine/gearbox (left leg working days only!) and the handling which was fun. But, it all felt a bit 'grown up' compared to the sporty, naughty earlier ones, which is why I now have a MK2 again.

The 2 litre seem a bit more robust the 1.8s just seem to blow up without much warning . I'd have a 2.0 one any day.

how much is a second hand engine for a mark 2 MX5?

Just £101.99 for this immaculately presented Perkins Prima.

Imagine what an ace combo that would be!

Yep - I think that ^ is a scam. The seller's account has no feedback for sold items, yet they have 35 items for sale that all got listed today. All motors, bikes or caravans. I guess someone's account has been hacked?

 

EDIT: All listings seem to have been removed now. Good.

 

 

This meanwhile, is real...
