Correct on both comments, I think it has been constructed out of giant mecano by someone who is partially sighted.

I used to have a real affinity with MX5's both Mk1 and Mk2. But all the Cha... / Lad's have now seem to have got hold of them. Which will no doub't push up insurance on them which was otherwise cheap and tainted the image of them now...

Re the rear wing. On the right car with commensurate modifications like a hotted up R32 or track focussed scoob, I think they look good and would imagine do actually create a fair bit of down force.. But on that MX5 he has probably lost about 20bhp with the extra weight and down force, and will probably end up dragging its arse on the ground if by some miracle it did manage to get to 120mph+

But I can't really judge... as I had door stickers and numbers on my road going Talbot sunbeam TI back in the day..

if your cars running serious bhp and generally required/benifitted from one then maybe... but i think you need the rest to go with it, like c.js for example..looks good with it andand the rest of the car matchs,if that sort of makes sense..

That MX-5 didn't sit that low at the rear end until that spoiler was put on it. There are plenty of nice examples of that style spoiler that don't look so big and heavily engineered.

I was never really getting one of those spoilers, agree about the s202 but very rare and not cheap, you can get a good copy for about £300ish.
