Mazda launches 25th Anniversary MX-5

Mazda MX-5 25th Anniversary Limited Edition

Mazda is celebrating the 25th birthday of its iconic two-seat sportscar this year with a 25th Anniversary Limited Edition which goes on sale in August in the UK.

Just 1,000 individually numbered examples will be built; 750 of them will be made available to UK customers with number one being unveiled at this year's Goodwood Festival of Speed on 26-29 June.

Its comprehensive equipment specification is based on the MX-5 Roadster Coupe 2.0 Sport Tech Nav, but this special model will have additional exterior and interior features unavailable on any other MX-5.

This special model, with a slick, short-throw 6-speed manual transmission, can sprint from 0-100km/h in under 8 seconds and has a top speed of 136mph and perfect 50:50 weight distribution.
