I bought mine in 1991, and I still have it!
Congratulations!🎉
The car that refined small, cheap sports cars and one that showed MG how to build a small sports car that is both reliable and doesn't always leak when it rains.
The MX5 is a great driving icon.
Mgf corners far better than a mx5.

You should drive more old cars. They come in the purest form.
Pedro Nunes, What the fun factor is is driving a purists car. No frills just feedback.
I haven't seen single frame where he pushed the car at least close to redline, she looks more scared than anything else on this video.
But hey, she got gloves (lol).
@@maXXik1337 so? she's reviewing a car that doesn't belong to her. and it's a really clean example. sure it comes alive when you really push it but unless you have explicit permission from the owner that's definitely rude.
Especially old Miatas. There are still a lot of low mileage, practically brand new 25 yo Miatas around. When I see them I want to buy them and add them to my collection... One can't have too many Miatas! Truth be told, personally, I have just one.
Love the energy. She conveys very well how it feels to drive these little cars. I just picked up an almost immaculate 93. I'm over the moon as well! 😆😍
Refreshing to see a great, happy and genuine reaction to the fabulous MX-5 Miata!
Indeed, it puts a smile on everyone that drives it. I thoroughly enjoyed this vid...thanks!
The original miata is an icon and deserves its place in history. Most people have no clue what this car is about untill they drive one. Spot on review Anna ! Peace out
Enjoyed the retro review , still a stunning car after all these years
What a nice and happy review! And thank you for bringing back the driving gloves! Have a good week ahead.
Happy you discovered the pure joy provided by the old mx5 ! I've got one for more than 15 years, and I can't stop riding it !
British racing green, tan interior, great combination.
So nice to see you enjoying the Miata! The smile says it all. Bought my first Miata a couple weeks ago and now look forward to the warm months. Makes you look for reasons to go for a ride. 😀
Thanks Anna. An enthusiastic review of an iconic car. I've always loved the series one with the pop up headlights which contributes to the MX-5 charm.
Thank you so much Steve ❤️
The thumbnail is you in a green dress with a red Miata. The video has you in a red dress driving a green Miata. Are you trying to play with our heads Anna?
Nice legs not to short skirt not to long. Shes maybe a screamer and loves going out in those and then you can just grab her waist touch her theigh up and lick her candle lights

Anna its the 3rd Miata video I've seen you in so you must really love them ! Each time big smiles too ! Now you know why I own a ND.
Absolutely brilliant video.ANNA. Please do more like this I love older cars.
Great to review this Anna. Icons always look good
Wonderful review. You joyfully celebrate an icon the way those of us who were around did when the MX 5 was introduced. It was like an updated version of a 1960's Lotus to us which was extremely exciting. Thank you for bringing back those memories and making an old guy happy.
I bought mine for a summer driver ..that was 21 years ago... so many smiles per mile
Great! Purely understand the joy.. 17 years Miata NA daily driver :-) brings back some memories..
Thank you Alexander, wow! so you know exactly how I felt driving this car! ❤️❤️❤️
Anna, awesome review. I have always had an MX-5 Miata NA among my cars stable but since March of last year, I find myself without one and I am really missing having one for those drives when the Cayman S feels somewhat numb when compared to the Miata. I think you made me go car shopping just now. The car you were driving is actually so clean and original. Even under the hood it looks pristine. Thank you so much for your high quality and always wonderful reviews.
Wow! what a fantastic review. Out of all the cars you have reviewed, you seemed to be at your happiest in this one. It totally showed on your beautiful face how much you were enjoying it. Once again great review and happy international ladies day Anna. 💕
Hola Anna. Your gloves combine perfectly with the classic Nardi MX-5 steering wheel. It has all the elements of a sports car: very light, weight / power ratio is excellent, rear-wheel drive. Being the best selling Roadster of all time, places it in a very special place. The best thing is that the current generation of the MX-5 retains all its essence.
More videos like this: the classic section 👍
Indudablemente una belleza... y que decir del auto.
Que tengas una excelente semana! Saludos...🌻
Great review! After so many years it’s amazing how they’ve been able to keep making it and even improving it. Although I think the older ones are better in some ways. Newer ones have more hp but less interior spaces for storage like no glove box. But for an affordable sports car that the average worker can get, MIATA IS THE ONLY ANSWER!. I think it’s more fin then a Porsche Boxster. You’re not afraid of repairs or depreciation! The less you spend the less you lose. Best bang for your buck... as you see after a nice drive in the oldest version!
It's "Miata is ALWAYS the answer"...
Great color combo!! Glad you got to drive it :)
Love the red, very very special. 😍Thankyou Anna for making my day.
Anna, you are so correct. New cars are just too big with too much stuff which will probably never be used. For my own part, I bought a Toyota MR2 back in 1985, still own it with just 53000 miles. Unfortunately the dreaded rust got hold but it's actually being fully restored right now. I am going to keep it and use it. Similar to the MX 5 it was a standard setter in the day. But with no power steering, air bags,cup holders,traction control blah blah blah, it weighed nothing but fitted with a hot little 1.6 engine, it was, for the day quite a rocket. Cannot wait to get it back, I will probably use it over the modern stuff!
I had my 1991 special edition Miata for 20 years like the featured here ,it is mint and put a smile on my face on the back roads every time,I 78 and love this car .😁🍷🎶
Spot on Anna, as always...👍
My Son and I just did a 900 mile round trip from Scotland to South of London to purchase a 91 red Mk1 MX5 as his second ever car after a Fiesta. On the journey we encountered two other examples both red a Mk1 and a Mk2. It is quite a tidy example that we intend to restore to show car standard but to use predominately as a summer daily driver. It is a bit noisy but after my first drive in it I can see the attraction of ownership. I was proud that his first drive was 450 solo miles without incident with at least half with the roof down. We hope to enjoy many years of ownership with the odd day with the roof down here in "Sunny" Scotland. I really enjoyed your video on some stunning roads.
Thank you dear Anna for sharing such a lovely beautiful review, referring to a legend sporty car, making us wanting to enjoy driving not an oldie but an always goldie young one!!!
Definitely a goldie ;-) ❤️ Thank you so much!
I just bought a 1991 Miata Se British racing green with tan interior exactly like this one. Even with wooden steering wheel. You cannot be sad behind the wheel of that car
Congratulations!!!
I've had four, currently have two. You can't have more fun in a car than a Miata.
Oh, be assured, you certainly can have more fun than in an MX5/Miata. If you want pure driving, sweet handling and incredible responsiveness in a two seat, rear drive roadster... try a Caterham 7. Any of them, new, old, fast or slow will make the Mazda seem dull and lifeless at any speed. 😉
@@another3997 can I get one for $4,000?
@@another3997 Not at all. A Caterham is completely different animal, a bike on 4 wheels. Both cars are classics.
agreed
The hairpin at 1:34 sums it up - she's talking away, not even thinking about her 180 degree turn - love it.
I absolutely love it, the MX-5 is such a great car!
Picked up a very low mile 91 BRG Miata a few months ago and like you, I totally love it!
From a Ford GT owner.
Great to see that you like classic cars too, you should definitely drive more older cars.
Another great video from you!
Thank you so much for doing this review Anna. As a mk1 owner I cannot agree more! Brilliant!
HI Anna. Love all your reviews. I'm a life long car enthusiast at age 56. My first favorite car was a toy GM concept bubble top 2 seater at age 4. Then at age 6 I saw a 68 ford mustang and that became my favorite just on it's looks, till the 1970 corvette stingray came out. After that I loved and enjoyed many different cars but none as much as the MX5. In 2011 after a short test drive I bought a 91 miata. Since then I've owned 8 different years, 2 being NB's, the rest NA's, and discovered there are many differences on various NA and NB models as they change in hp, handling, and other features. Now I'm back to the most simple model the 1990 in classic red. I had the same surprise and pleasure as you driving my first one and still love it and smile every time I go for a spin. It makes every day driving a sweeter pleasure. My favorite car to date is the MX5 because it's hard to drive anything else once you get a taste. It's reliable, economical, inexpensive and so fun. Excellent review on your first classic Miata. I hope you may discover some of the qualities of different year special factory models and review them too. It would be a great archive for miata seekers and owners. Thanks for the great videos.
Thank you so much for your kind words. I will be bringing more vintage cars to my channel, I truly loved the Miata. But wow, you have quite of a collection of cars you've owned!
Excellent review, the mx5 has a wonderful sole a mixture of English sounds, 90s engineering and styling inspired by the lotus elan. I've had the most fun marketing the mx5 from its first introduction in the usa.
Great review. It was only a few days back I was thinking whether or not you would do classic car from the past. What a great car the MX5 is and look like you drive it in great condition. It looks like someone has looked after that MX5 really well.
Looks like an original, low-mileage, well cared for car. They can age very well.
Tell ya what,Anna...All Generations of 'em MX 5 are great.From the "NA" till the actual "ND"....Mazda always kept the spirit up.That's why.
Just discovered your channel and loved this first video. Well done!
Hi John, thank you so much and a very warm welcome!
I love this car ! Good job Ana !
Thank’s , you are the best !
These 1st gen Miatas are much revered and still raced Autocross. As an a ND.1 Club owner, I tend to agree with the saying “Miata (any Miata) is always the answer.”
Thanks Anna. I enjoyed that. The views in Switzerland can be .......... breathtaking
Thank you Bernie ❤️ very much breathtaking!
Hey Anna, welcome to old school! This could be the beginning of something for you. My oldest car was a red 1962 Triumph TR4. Just 100bhp, 110 mph flat out, 0-60 in 10 seconds, simple cart sprung back axle. But the rorty sound from the big 2.2 litre 4 cylinder, the intake roar from the twin SU carburettors, the super light, direct steering, the lovely mechanical feel of the gear change, the wind in your hair. It was pure magic. Like you say, forget motorways, cities, daily commutes. Head out down twisting country roads on a sunny day and these old sports cars come alive! From your reactions in the video, I think you know what I mean! :)
Sales pitch...
Good review as always Anna. It shows that whilst modern cars are great, there are plenty of older cars which offer cheap, fun driving and the MX5 has stood the test of time. I like the colour schemed wooden steering wheel/gearstick too.
Thank you so much David ❤️ I couldn't agree more, the MX-5, although very popular is still very unique
I own an ND, but I love the shape and style of the NA. The one you are driving in this video is the EXACT color choice I would have - British Racing Green with a tan interior and wood wheel and shifter. I think I may treat myself for my 60th birthday! :-) Good video. Enjoyed it
I traded my 91 for a 93LE twenty years ago and still have it. I put a wood Nardi steering wheel in it and will drive it tomorrow because it was so fun watching you drive .
I’m glad I found your channel.
Thank You so much, Anna. Now I want one!
Great car the MX5, two Cutie's together and great view from the drivers seat Anna 😇😎😍
Wow!
Classic car review. You finally start doing it. I hope it's a start 😀.
Thank you Richard, yes, it is certainly just the beginning! ❤️
Such a classic! My friend had one too and I drove it and I love it too :)
Great review as always Anna. I have a request for for a classic car, please review the Mercedes SL500 R129. One of my favourites.
Love the gloves too ;)
Hi Winton, lovely seeing you back, thank you ❤️
Anna does it again! Great tribute to the MK1 MX-5.
Thanks Anna...I taught myself to drive exactly on a brand new one of those Anna..same colour too...then I progressed to my 75 Corona which I still have... next time your in Oz we have to get you in a few of my oldies!!!
Great vid. Older car and Swiss mountains. Just my cup of tea. Well done 👍
Thank you Mike and happy Sunday! ❤️
Best review to date yet! The thumbnail for the video (or any frame from the first minute of the video) would make a perfect wallpaper. Any way to get pics?
Been a subscriber for a while now and your videos have come a long way. Editing and the flow of your review has improved drastically.
Thank you so much! I can email you the picture/thumnail - absolutely :-)
Nice car _nice dress...cool place
Glad you like it , I have a red 91 ,had it for ten years and will never sell it, its that good, going up in value too, one if the best sports cars made IMO, and the best fun you can have with your clothes. on . ..cheers
This must be one of Anna's best videos, and the Mazda Miata must be her favorite car of all time! She absolutely SQUEALS with delight as soon as she gets behind the wheel! When does she do that over any other car? Whereas reviewing an ND she mentions JOY only half-heartedly, at the very end, it's one of the first words she uses for the NA, and she uses it over and over!
I’m loving your channel. The videography is incredible, as are the landscapes. Where did you find such a nice older Miata? That one is truly in exceptional shape.
Thank you so much Jay, it just happened to be in the press fleet of Mazda Switzerland. But this is very unusual for brands in general, to have vintage cars in their press fleet. Mazda in Switzerland, however, is very unique, in a very good way.
Nice combination of an old school car and the enthusiastic and charming Anna👌
I have a 2018 MX5 as my daily driver, it's a great car, but suddenly I want a 1991... what a beauty, the green, the wooden steering wheel, and pure driving fun without all the fluff.
Lovely video. I just purchased a 1999 Miata, for less than some spend on an expensive set of wheels and tires for the new overly electrified cars. I also have a Honda S2000, and feel the Miata is part of a timeless masterpiece.
An oldie but a goodie! Absolutely love it. I hope you will get the chance to do a classic American muscle car one day. That's a different animal. Thanks for the video!
First one! 😂 But nice review! The dark green colour goes really well with that beautiful cognac interior. Haven’t seen one in this spec until now!
:-)
Great video. I have the exact same one!
Stunning !
Oh and I used to buy one of these every summer when I lived in the UK .
Bearing in mind I had an rs6 and a 911 turbo but if I wanted anfun drive I used the mx5.......
And the never go wrong !
Thank you Nick ❤️ and it just shows you! We all crave a bit of the MX5! 🔥
A friend of mine bought one brand new back in 91 when she lived in LA. I am remember cruising around LA with her in a blue Mazda Miata to this day it’s a car always wanted. Like you said it’s a fun car to drive.
I think it doesn't get better than this, cruising along the ocean with this pretty little thing 💙
Love this review Anna. Talking of cIassics I think you would absolutely love Porsche's 944 turbo from the 80s and early 90s. They are the most fun a person could have with clothes on 👍👍
A wonderful day, with fantastic landscapes and a very beautiful original car ... Brava Anna! I congratulate you on International Women's Day, I wish you a beautiful spring with a lot of smiles and beautiful joys!
It’s funny used to always think the Miata was a girls car .i had A 2014 Porsche Boxster it was so much fun to drive but so expensive every time it broke.I traded that in for 2019 Mazda mx5 I’ve had it for the last nine months I love it .It’s definitely a drivers car if you love taking corners fast just having fun driving it’s your car .Anna is right has a go cart feel to it .i drove it down to the the Florida keys from Tampa area it’s a 7 hour drive it’s very Comfortable.People have a preconceived notion’s of something I was wrong about the Mazda it’s a drivers car not a girls car .
Hi Gus, thank you for dropping by ❤️ It just shows you, definitely not a girls' only car. Sure, it's fun and easy to drive but this is what's so beautiful about Miata, a very feminine woman will enjoy it and a big tough guy will do as well!
tampaguy35 - Totally agree! I traded my 2012 Boxster in and got a replacement- 2008 Miata with the PRHT! Fantastic car; it’s incredible! Terrific handling and so much cheaper to live with. It’s my daily driver.
Anna on Roads so very true there’s a reason it’s the number one Convertible in the world .
quite old for some, quite small, but beautiful in her own unique way, stylish, sexy, with big blinking eyes, teasing you to touch her and make her scream, or just drive her gently so you become as one ... i'm talking about this mazda (you all dirt-minded maniacs).
😆
Haha, you got them ;-) the maniacs that is!
Thanks for the romance. Appropriate.
1st-gen Miata was the first car I ever owned. Mine was the S-Package with a leather MOMO steering wheel and I loved it. After 25 years, now I find the green V-Special with a wooden wheel more attractive.
Yes!
Your review is perfect! I have a 97!
love it Anna
Great car and great review.
We had one of those when they were brand new in 1990
Great video Anna on the Mx5 mark one, how about trying the mark two, three and four and give us your verdict😎
Lady, I have that car, the exact same year and version. I commend the way you treated the 1.6 engine, it makes me feel bad for pushing mine rough sometimes. You drove it outstandingly well.
Anna, you have to bring that car to a place like that with someone like you behind the wheel or beside and then and only then, that will be a perfect match. You fit perfectly to that car and we appreciate that you agree to drive it. Will you test others old cars??? Hope you answer yes!!! By the way, Speedy Gonzales have nothing to do with you driving... believe me. Hugs.
Ciao Eddy, thank you so much ❤️ very true, it's all about the companion and sharing. But I do enjoy my solo drives, I'm a bit of a lone wolf. Yes, I will start bring some older cars to my channel!
@@AnnaOnRoads that explains why I can't get even a little bit closer to you when you drive... but Iet me tell you a secret, I love to drive alone as well. Nobody tells me where to stop or continue and my new A Class 220 is my best company. So, thanks for sharing your thoughts and feelings on every car you test.
Great review and the MX5 is a legend and a great fun car 🚗

Minimalistic joy... Like you, I’ve never been drooling over vintage cars - other than Countachs, Testa Rossi’s and likes - but I can get the attraction to the MX-5... Is it really a combination that won’t work - modern technology and feel that almost makes the car an extension of the driver? Modern cars are great - power, convenience, even looks (in some cases) - but almost without an exception, they just isolate the driver from the car... I think you should do more classic car reviews, how about a Lamborghini Countach, or the original Porsche Boxster (did I just say that, I don’t even like Porches)... Great video, but is it really that warm in Switzerland, or did you film this last summer? 😎
Looking good Anna
Welcome to fold Anna! Bought mine new in 92, first new car as I was just a kid myself. Still have it, supercharged and driven in almost every state in the US. Have spent time in many faster supposedly better cars but none more enjoyable.
Thank you for your work, I have the chance to have one , me 1 owner, me always a lover, like you said, you drive it, and it always put a smile on your face 🇧🇪🙏
Thank you very much Rudy
Nice!
Blue thumb up from France:-)
Nice video, I might have a line on a 1990 is perfect shape...Hope I can get it.
best car you've driven in some time. If only more cars had the drive and feel of the Miata/MX-5. Proof that slow doesn't have to mean boring. Perfect dress for a perfect drive. Cheers.
Hello Anna ..... I totally agree with you, this car is stunning ..... and so nice to drive. The new one with the 184 CV engine is totally crazy ..... I feel you took a big pleasure at his steering wheel under the sun ..... 👍😉
Thank you JN Nitpou ❤️ Lots and lots of fun and joy with this pretty little thing under the sun ☀️❤️

Welcome Anna. Your passion for the motor car is wonderful. The camerawork, the location and of course the lady driving makes this a great channel. Kind regards Oran.
Owned a 90, 92 autocross car, and my favorite. A 93le. Really great cars. Very fast on the curves. Sway bars, intake, headers, high flow cat, exhaust. A whopping 130 hp.😂 Still plenty fast. Lots of 😁
I have '99 that, just like you said, I save for the weekends. It's like my reward for a long work week. It's a very capable & fun sports car. It's reliable enough to take on long drives & use as a daily driver. All this & it's affordable to maintain and upgrade. These reasons are why Miata Is Always The Answer.
Hi Anna, I've had my 1990 for 27 of it's 30 year life. Also a 2003 for about 10 years...great cars! What is the route you are taking in the video? Ever do the Sustan Pass? Cheers
The green and tan colour scheme with the wood is a great combination.
Just purchased a mint ‘97 M-edition, which is Marina Green (BRG) over tan leather and top. Am looking for a good wood steering wheel, esp. one with the original square air bag...
It´s not a great combination. It is the best one.
