1997 MX5 MK1 Harvard. Stunning example with 57008 miles For Sale

Here I have for sale my beautiful, lady owned 1997 MX5 Harvard MK1 in Silverstone metallic. One of only 500 Harvard editions ever produced and based on a standard 1800cc model, which was named after the famous US college in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

Quite simply put, this Harvard is possibly one of the best examples of this particular limited edition models in the country. When I purchased this Harvard, it was explained to me that the previous owner was an MX5 enthusiast and club member, who only drove the car a few hundred miles per year to local MX5 club events and car shows, and the car was only ever used on dry days during his 7 year ownership.

The car has only done 57008 miles, and is in outstanding condition throughout. The history file alone really needs to be seen to be believed, having two large binders packed full of service invoices, previous bills of sale, and every receipt you could imagine, also included are lots of MX5 owner's club and magazine cut out paraphernalia. The history file also contains the original Autotrader page cut out from 15 years ago, when the car was adverised back in 2003.

All the handbooks and service book are present, and also two sets of keys. The car still has the original supplying dealership rear plate and the dealership front window sticker from Stratstone Mazda of Wilmslow.

What sets the Harvard edition apart from most other MK1 models is that the seats are trimmed in luxurious burgundy leather with grey piping, and has matching burgundy door cards. The centre console features a walnut effect trim and complimented by a Momo leather steering wheel. Further enhancements included unique Harvard burgundy floor mats and a chrome cockpit brace mounted behind the seats, and last but not least, the Harvard front wing badges and boot badge. All these Harvard extras are present with this particular car, and it even has the genuine Harvard edition alloy wheels fitted.

The car is in stunning condition throughout, both front and rear sills are as good as they left the factory, and are free from any corrosion and are in a very solid state. The rear arches are still showing the original factory spot welds, and the front arches are free from any blistering. These areas can be very problematic on most MX5's.

The underside of the car is also corrosion free, and still showing the original factory underseal, and not any nasty hammerite, or any previous owner attempt and covering up any suspect areas with underseal. The only thing I can possibly fault is there is a small parking dink in the driver's side door, but nothing too drastic to put right, I have reflected this in my advertised price.

The car drives absolutely faultless, with no suspect noises whatsoever. The engine performs how you would expect and the gearchange is very precise.

The car has MOT until until 25th September 2018, with the car flying through the last MOT with zero advisories. Even the MOT tester complimented me on the condition of the car after the test. The history file also contains every single previous MOT certificate and almost every single tax disc.

If I could keep this car I would, but the fact is I have recently purchased a Honda S2000, so very reluctantly I have placed my MX5 for sale. Reluctant, as MK1 MX5's are becoming increasingly difficult to find in this low mileage condition. Especially so, being a sought after Harvard edition.

If you have any questions, or to arrange to view the car, please don't hesitate to contact me (Belinda) on the details below or the details below. Thank you.
