Highlights BBR Stage 2 turbo, dyno'd at nearly 300bhp Deep metallic Stormy Blue Seriously developed chassis and braking Bespoke, personalised cabin Extensive handling upgrades in 2025 Overview The third-generation NC is the MX-5 that grew up without losing the plot.

It took the recipe the model made its name on, a light rear-drive roadster you can lean on all day, and gave it more space, more polish and a proper 2.0-litre with a limited-slip differential on the manual cars.

It's the sort of car you can drive to work on Monday and take to a trackday on Saturday, which is exactly why so many enthusiasts still swear by them.

This one, though, is no standard NC.

The car is 2.0 Sport which includes full leather, heated seats, Bose and LSD, finished in a deep metallic Stormy Blue that suits the shape beautifully.

Now it wears a full BBR Stage 2 turbo conversion and pulled 298.6bhp on BBR's own dyno.

That alone would be enough for most, but what really sets this car apart is what's gone...
