      Even the 4 banger was solid. Has the same engine as the/mk1 mx5.

      They made a newer version of this too, plus it was an estate, had a sport version with a 2L I4 which to this day I think is a nice looking car (from the front)

      Yeah but that v6 was a terrible ownership proposition. It sounded amazing and was fun, but maintenance was an absolute pain in the knob, you had to become a walking lexicon of what parts from the 2.5 could be used and it just didnt make enough power to justify the long term headache of keeping one in good shape.
