    Is it just me or does everyone think this car is bloody beautiful for under 30k?

      Miata owners might say it's uglier. Everybody else though..

    Great video. Just FYI...there are two storage compartments behind the seats. Seems as if everyone misses those.

    I prefer the look of the MX5 personally even though I think this looks more special. To me the MX5 is one of the best looking cars in the road today.

    • @m.goodpickle9609
      @m.goodpickle9609 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I didn't like the rear end of the new MX5, and bought a Spider. Glad I did! 15,000 miles and it's been a peach every mile!

    Because the ATX is tuned for economy to help meet fleet cafe standards. That can be changed.

    Great video with a great car. You’re videos are really amazing Luke! My only criticism with the 124/MX-5 is that the transmission intrudes into the drivers footwell so you’re forced to have your left leg on the dead pedal whereas I sometimes like it closer to me. I think thats just me being fussy though ahahaha

      I've been saying that for years mate about the footwell in RHD MX5's and 124's. Fine in LHD which is the biggest market of course depite Japan driving on the same side as us !!! you only have to look at the drivers side footwell mat compared to the passengers on a RHD

    Exhaust sounds lets say interesting but just open the bonnet and listen to how unrefined and basically how rough the tiny single overhead cam engine sounds . I'm surprised or maybe I shouldn't be that no testers on you tube do that . The only grinning I did was when I gave one back after a road test

    i have owned about 40 cars in my life
    driven over 2 million miles
    i test drove a fiat 124 yesterday.
    let me tell you straight ok..there's a good reason nobody has ever bought one of these.
    utter pos thing to drive..below 2000 rpm it's painful to drive..pulling away in traffic is terrible
    the motor is as rough as hell .
    the seats are made for dwarfs
    the power is jut pathetic. this car needs about 250 bhp to be fun.
    the seats are dreadful and have a terrible small back support on them.
    there's a reason these cars are mostly bought by women.
    2nd worst car i have ever driven..
    WARNING
    TEST DRIVE BEFORE BUYING OK
    if you're over 5 foot tall then walk away
