The level of tuning for MX-5s is almost infinite though so if you do need something with more of an edge then its easily available - turbos, superchargers, there are kits available to transplant small lock Ford and GM LSx V8 engines. They're so good that I kept my slightly modded ongoing project MX-5 when I bought the VX. In conclusion MX's are superb little cars.

Quotes in Glasgow with 0 NCB are £1290 for an NA and £1550 for a Turbo. Considering a 1.0 Micra is about £750 I don't think they are bad at all! I pay £1250 on the mx5 just now.
I doubt I could insure a VX in London.

P.s. the handling is great on the VX but when it starts to go, it goes and is a lot harder to catch due to its mid engine. The MX with its front engine, RWD and softer setup means that you get plenty of lovely warning and time to catch a tailslide in it.
I do fully appreciate this. I will be driving very carefully when I do finally get one/test drive one. I'm very conscious of what the car is doing under me and the effects of weight transfer and too much throttle.
