MAZDA MX-5, the popular roadster, got a winter make-over in time for the New Year with improved specification and three new exterior colours.

With prices starting from just £15,000 on the road, the Mazda MX-5 is guaranteed to turn heads this season.

In showrooms now, the improved specification Mazda MX-5 features new design 16-inch alloy wheels on the Sport derivative adding to its sports car appeal. A new windblocker equipped with two speakers on 1.8i and 1.8i Sport will ensure Mazda MX-5 owners can enjoy their music as well as the thrill of open-top motoring.

Inside the cabin, a new aluminium centre console surrounds the stereo and air vent/air-conditioning controls while new cloth seat material completes the improved interior look.

The Mazda MX-5 has sold in excess of 600,000 worldwide in the 14 years since introduction. It is the car that reignited interest in the affordable sports car segment, leading to many manufacturers copying the classic design and front engine, rear wheel drive layout of the Mazda MX-5.

Popular for its looks and driving dynamics the Mazda MX-5 brought fun back into motoring, with the freedom to throw off the roof and enjoy the sunshine.
