Hi all!
New here and to MX-5 life - I've just picked up my (a couple shades of) white 1990 Mk1 today, and am looking forward to the adventures that lie ahead (thankfully with the assistance of a rabid MINI fan and some lovely vintage & veteran aficionados that think I've gone "very modern!") No MOT at the moment - a few brake issues to sort - but I'm hoping to have work done in good time for a fun summer and maybe some autumn rallies.
Expect LOTS of questions!

Hi everyone, new to this forum. We have an N reg Mazda MX5 MK1 and a MK2.5. Bit cheeky to ask on first visit but do any of you know where I could get all the parts required to convert the MK1 to power assisted steering. Thanks in anticipation and looking forward to being part of this group.
Over-complicated pile of bits that oneday will be fitted to my '91 SilverShItBoX

Welcome, buy an MX-5 
much cheaper to run and better for the planet too as you don't need to buy 5L of oil every week

Not usually keen on MK3s but this is going the right way, nice! Welcome

Hello. My name is Dino. I'm a Rock Musician from NYC. I now live on the Gulf Coast of Florida. I work for Apple. I'm a gadget computer guy more than a car guy but I was driving a 2000 Protege' up until 8 days ago. I finally saved my pennies and bought a 2008 MX-5 Miata PRTC in Burgundy. It's an Automatic. I know that is frowned upon on these forums, but it was by choice and I love it. Have no regrets. Thanks for including me in your club. I am glad to be here.

Hi all!
I don't currently own an MX5 but looking to get a Mk1 as a light project on a lower budget this year [hopefully!]. I've always loved the pop-ups on Japanese cars, which is why I am on the lookout for a Mk1.
Long time JDM fan and I currently daily a Mk1 Honda CRV, with Forester STI in the garage for the sunny days (as below).
Cheers, and looking forward to joining the community!
