So I'm in the market for a MK3 MX-5 next spring. That's the shape which ran from around 2005 to 2015...2.0 version is the one I am after.

Hi all,
So I'm a newbie here and also new to MB. I have always wanted a C63 since seeing one years ago pull up next to me.

A few things I just want to ask thought...

Hi guys. Are there any common major (expensive) problems/reliability issues with these?
I tend to think not as you see so many of them being used as taxis.
Are there any optional extras that you would deem as must haves? Is the sport better for standard options/ generally a nicer place to...
Hello everyone, I know that you probably have this a lot but I'm a prospective c63 owner and want to know a little bit more about the general ownership and some of the scary problems I've read about from people that live with the car day to day.
Currently I have a 2016 civic type r but have...
I hope to get a little advice on buying an automatic CLC to replace my 2001 C180 Sportcoupe. Shame really as it only has 80k miles though I'm facing a few expensive necessary repairs in order for it to get through MOT. The wheel arch rust is also quite bad now.
As I'll be stuck in Germany...

So currently my other half uses her 2006 SL350 as her daily car but we are looking to start a family so four doors will be a requirement for her in the future.
She doesn't do huge mileage any more but obviously the SL isn't great on fuel (around 20mpg) so it would be good if her next car was...
