Ok, who has the highest mileage on their MX5 ?
Never put the top up unless the storm has a name.

I've got just under 17K km on my MY18 ND.

Hey, it's the highest response so far! :mrgreen:

I think around 300 Kay is the max. Beyond that they fall apart.

My NA-8 has a motor and supercharger built by Bullet Cars 35,000 km ago. I'm thinking of selling it if anyone is interested.
