i think i found one!



Being a Clubman it has had a 1.8l engine with a 5 speed, an LSD, Bilstein Shocks, Nardi Steering Wheel, removed PS and AC and minimum sound deadening from factory - ie. the lightest 1.8l Mx5 there was.
242xxx kms - engine has been rebuilt about 65 000 kms ago, as were the front calipers and LSD.

Modifications:
Brown Davis roll bar
Custom exhaust
Tein Flex - less than 1000kms old;
Whiteline front strut brace and front sway bar.
will come with stock rims or 14x6.5 +15 TE37 or Watanabes 15x7 +20 - depending on price.
Factory black lip at the front.
