21 Jun 2014|2,445 views
Celebrating the 25th birthday of its iconic two-seater sportscar this year, Mazda is delighted to announce the launch of the 2.0-litre 25th Anniversary Limited Edition MX-5 Roadster Coupe, which goes on sale throughout the U.K. from 1st August.
When global production reached 531,890 units in May 2000, the little Mazda was certified by Guinness World Records as the world's best-selling two-seater sports car in history. Total global production passed the 900,000 mark in February 2011, and the Mazda MX-5's Guinness certification was updated.
It is a testament to Britain's enduring love affair with open-top motoring that 750 of them will be made available to U.K. customers with number one being unveiled at this year's Goodwood Festival of Speed from 26th to 29th June.
"To date, three generations of Mazda MX-5 have witnessed the release of over 43 Special Edition models in the U.K. since 1990. None, however, could be more significant to us than this model, which marks such an important milestone for a car that single-handedly reintroduced the world to the pleasures of exhilarating and affordable open-topped motoring," said Jeremy Thomson, Managing Director, Mazda U.K.
With a comprehensive equipment specification based on the Mazda MX-5 Roadster Coupe 2.0 litre Sport Tech Nav, the 25th Anniversary Limited Edition model boasts a wealth of additional exterior and interior features unavailable on any other Mazda MX-5.
A model-unique, Soul Red Metallic paint finish is complemented by Brilliant Black door mirrors, A-pillars and a power-operated retractable hardtop roof. 17-inch Dark Gunmetal alloy wheels, a rear diffuser and chrome exhaust trim complete the bespoke exterior, with each example benefiting from unique, Limited Edition numbered external badging.
Married to a slick, short-throw six-speed manual transmission, its 2.0-litre 160bhp powerplant finishes the century sprint in a sub-8 second timing before reaching a top speed of 218km/h.
