Which MX-5 model should I buy?
I am looking at buying a Mazda MX-5 from 2010-2013. Which engine is best? And is the steel top better than cloth? Also, which tyre sizes should be avoided for comfort?

Very little room inside any MX5. Hard top RC obviously better in winter. 2.0 Sport 6-speed best engine and transmission combination. Must have ESP (2.0 litres do, but not all 1.8s do and they'll spin on a sixpence).
Our honest used car pricing is a little bit different to all the others. You can get to our values through make or model - you don’t have to follow a prescribed route. Plus, it’s live, which means we can react to changes in the market quicker than any printed price guide.
