Complete history of the car that recaptured the spirit of traditional sports cars, from the first model introduced in 1989 to second generation launched in 1997.

Twenty years ago, the Mazda MX-5 Roadster was born – the result of five years’ research and development by two project teams split across Japan and the USA. When launched, it was the sports car the world was waiting for. Over the past 20 years, the MX-5 has evolved and changed, but has managed to stay true to the original philosophy of ‘horse and rider as one,’ a car to truly engage with the driver and provide the ultimate top-down driving experience with its perfect 50/50 weight distribution and neutral handling – it is easy to control, nimble and light, and inexpensive to buy, own and maintain. The MX-5 is a true testament to itself as the ‘world’s best-selling sports car,’ and with the earlier MkI and MkII available for modest prices, it is the perfect choice as a fun and enjoyable daily driver, a weekend track car, or a project base for a kit car. This book will help you get the MX-5 of your dreams.

This is the definitive history of the first generation Mazda MX-5 - also known as the Miata or Eunos Roadster. A fully revised version of an old favourite, this book covers all major markets, and includes stunning contemporary photography gathered from all over the world.
