  • In this episode of Daniel Drives, Daniel is in St. Helens to meet Ryan John Ball, the proud owner of a MK1 Mazda MX-5 named Mazzy. Daniel reminisces on his MX-5 past and explains what exactly makes them so great. Hope you enjoy it!
    A huge thank you to Ryan for allowing full access to his wonderful little car. You’ve done a great job making it look how it does today. Credit to you.

    Hi, my dad has a red mk1 in his garage which he’s had since I was knee high to a grass hopper and last year he finally let me drive it! I only put my foot down on the straights as I’ve done enough to disappoint my dad without smashing his pride and joy up! It wasn’t fast but it’s all about that feeling and that buzz it gives ya! And yes I would super charge it if ya wondering 😂😂😂

      That’s great, completely agree with you about the buzz, it’s a very rewarding feeling.

    Quality video. In 1999 I bought a H reg mx5 1.6 BBR Turbo. I don't know yhe exact hp but it would piss all over the 1.8s. The BBR Turbo kit was available from new at the dealers with the mazda warranty. A great 'drivers' car 👌

      Good question… It would definitely be tight!

      I have a hardtop for it and the head room is better than the soft top so I think Daniel would fit (just) as he is quite tall hahahaha

      No power steering , and casual driving means you have to hold it odd on occasion 😂
