I like this format of video. It's good to see what's involved and how each step evolves. Looking forward to seeing more. If you ever get a chance to show the cutting and welding (even if it is a timelapse) that would also be good. Thanks for sharing this.

@Ira Lennon thanks for your reply. I found the site on google and I'm in the hacking process now. Seems to take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.

Thanks David, we are not actively recording videos at the moment, but they will return as soon as we can return to some form of normal operations in the workshop

Amazing how similar this rust is to my 2007 mk3. Don’t think mine has been caused by an impact. More so due to the foam padding on the fabric arch liner constantly being wet and rubbing on the seal between inner and outer panels. Although as in the video the other side is spotless. Any ideas on the cost of this repair? Repair sections are also available via mx5parts by IL.

Hi ,I'm in Scotland and I'm starting to see quite a lot of Mk3's being sold as MOT fails and uneconomic to repair. Are the Mk3's that bad ?There is a 2005 on eBay at the moment at £950.00. I haven't looked at it ,but the online MOT seems to show extensive corrosion at both front and rear suspension mounting points. I didn't think any modern cars rusted that bad any more. Are the mk2's a better buy? Thanks John

@lightsuplightsdown3018 4 года назад

Hi John, I would say that any MX5 for £950 is going to be a risky purchase, we have seen some very rusty mk3 MX5's and I certainly wouldn't say the Mk2 is a better bet in terms of rust, look over any version very carefully

Are the inner arch panels available to buy or do you fab your own?

@lightsuplightsdown3018 4 года назад

Hi Dave, We use part of the arch repair panels to create the inner arch lip, you can buy them from our website via the following link www.themx5restorer.co.uk/shop/new-mx5-parts/rear-arch-repair-panels-mk22-5/

Starting to shop for a mk3 how are they rust wise ? I know the mk1/mk2 almost all of them are rusted or have been repaired... same story with the mk3 or are they a bit better ? Thanks

@lightsuplightsdown3018 3 года назад

The Mx3 still suffers from rust, mainly the rear arches, rear sills and rear subframe
