MAZDA has just introduced the Special Edition Mazda MX-5 Indiana, offering open-top motoring from £17,000 on-the-road.

The Indiana goes back to the Mazda MX-5 classic sports car roots featuring beige heated leather seats, wooden steering wheel and luxurious wood trim to complete the look.

The Indiana will appeal to the head as well as the heart with its unique Garnet Red exterior, classic sports car interior and a well-equipped specification list offering great value for money.

Only 250 of the special Indiana editions are available in the UK and with the spirited 1.8-litre fuel injected 146ps engine and rear wheel drive, it is set to be a much sought after vehicle.

Recently named Britain’s Best Handling Car 2003 by Autocar, the Indiana boasts dynamic driving performance for that pure sports car fun-to-drive feel and guarantees peace of mind thanks to high levels of safety and reliability.

With a top speed of 127 mph and 0-62 mph in just 8.5 seconds, rear-wheel drive, highly responsive steering and a firm ride, theIndiana reminds you what classic sports car driving is all about.

The Mazda MX-5 Indiana is available in showrooms now, priced from £17,000 on-the-road.
