Long timer lurker on PH, always been into my cars (and bikes) and had a few what I would consider, half decent motors - Clio cup, fiesta st, M2 competition, m140i.

Currently driving a diesel VAG company car and I’m considering getting something to go along side this as a weekend/B road car, which has lead me down the path of mx5’s. I’ve looked at S2000 options and even cayman’s but you need a good chunk of cash for a good clean low mileage example. I’ve got a budget of around 13 - 15k which from what I can see would get me a clean sort tech NC and enough money left over for coilovers, bbr super 200 and other tasty bits.

To those who have modded NC’s, am I going to feel like I’ve wasted a lot of time and money at the end of this? Will it feel special enough or should I just be saving for something that won’t need modifications. The problem is I’ve never driven a modded NC.

Thanks for any advice in advance!

I'd give BBR a call and go and drive one of their demonstrators.
