Kak?na je po va?em mnenju realna cena za enga solidnega 2001/2002 letnika (neke srednje mo?i)?Lep pozdrav, da ?e jest mal lon?ek pristavim.. Najprej bom omenil, da o Z3 ne vem kaj dosti, nisem ga ?e peljal, tko da ne bom sodil o tem. Kar je blo pa zgoraj napisanega o primerjavah obeh, kar dr?i. ?e se najprej obregnem ob citat, mx-5 je od 2002 letnika faceliftana, kar pomeni, da ima lep?e prednje in zadnje lu?i, prednji odbija? in nekaj malega notranjosti. Na si lahko pogleda? razlike do 01 letnika in od 02 naprej. Praviloma je facelift kak?nega jur?ka dra?ji, ?e ti to igra kaj vloge..Sicer je pa avto fantasti?en, vzdr?evanje poceni, vozne lastnosti odli?ne, veter v laseh in ob?utek brez?asnosti...na ra?un luksuza in prostornosti..se spla?a. Sam sicer vozim razli?ico z 81kw motorjem in mi na splo?no ?ist ustreza, ob bolj dirka?ki vo?nji pa manjka mo?i, sploh pri ovinkih in prehitevanjih. Takrat je treba ve?krat menjat prestave in priganjat v visoke obrate..btw..zvok motorja je zelo lep sicer pa zado??a, povpre?na poraba na 17colkah je okrog ?isto nakupu mx-5 nima? kej dost pazit, tako kot pri navadnem avtu. Razen platnene strehe pazi, ta mora bit lepo ohranjena, ni? razpokana in da se gladko odpira in zapira. Hardtop dobi? pri nas za okoli 500eur, preko E-baya ?e ceneje. Pozimi zelo prav pride, sploh ?e ma? avto parkiran zunaj. v tej temi pi?e tudi nekaj na to temo, si lahko pogleda?..

Compared to the mk1 mazda the zed has a much more solid heavy feel to it, the dynamics and drive feel very different. The mazda a very light car with sharp steering and nicely weighted , i guess there is more than enough reviews out on the mx5 that i can add much too. The zed, well we did not get off to a very good start. Our tour of the south coast ended in Lymington where the car remained for the week while the rac approved garage sourced an electric radiator fan to replace the fan which was seized, [we had overheated in Winchester but Lymington was closer to our booked hotel in Christchurch] Made use of public transport for the week, shame, it was perfect top down motoring weather. On collecting the car and driving away the abs light was showing on the dash, i returned to be told the light was on when the car was left with them hmmmm, this was 4 in the afternoon so with 330 miles to go i was keen to get on the road, Brimmed the tank at the co-op opposite and set off after. After 2 or 3 miles an intermitent miss arrrrgh, [ could it be rubbish petrol?] Anyway got home safe, time for some troubleshooting. However after a bumpy start am starting to enjoy the zed, couple of trips to the Yorkshire Dales have been great and enjoying the car. In summary,two very different but nice top down cars. Z3I Zorg Legend #2 Did the ABS light go out after a short time? As I've learnt working on various parts of the car, often the ABS warning is triggered by battery being disconnected/reconnected, and then working on a ABS checked part of the car. #3 Drivers Car = MX5 Miniature muscle car = Z3 both have plus and minus points and having owned both i would be more inclined towards the Z3 overall but definitely miss the sweetness of the MX5 #4 I still have a mk1 eunos s ltd great little car very agile compared to the zed. But for distance driving the zed is so much better. #5 Could not agree more, distance driving much better in the zed, garage plugged in lymington plugged in the zed and said rear abs sensors both sides so i have renewed them , new spark plug leads cured the misfire #6 Could not agree more, distance driving much better in the zed, garage plugged in lymington plugged in the zed and said rear abs sensors both sides so i have renewed them , new spark plug leads cured the misfire My mate has an eunos with a mini supercharger it is very lively #7 MX5 ok for tazzing round the lanes, I had one , sweet gear change, but rust like mad. Z3 a better quality car, just spent a month driving across Spain, wouldn't have done that in my fault with the Z3 is the gear change, otherwise I love it ! #8 I had a foot in both camps too. My Eunos was brilliant fun, much more than the heavy Z3. But it nearly impossible to compare the two for all the above reasons. Shame they rotted like they did, but if they didn't, I probably would not be typing this. Tony. #9 I had a MX5 back in the day as did I have a Zed 3 in 1999 The MX5 is much lighter more nimble loves to rev handles really well around country lanes where as a Z3 feels heavier more of a cruiser well it is in a it's much quieter when not reved high and feels happier not being chased around but better on a motorway. Obviously the Z3 is a much better build quality all over mechanical interior body . Hope that helps. Ps the MX5 never went wrong in 3 years nothing at all I heard they rarely do go wrong very reliable. Last edited: Aug 4, 2018 #10 Last week I was on some twisty back roads and an MX5 came up close behind trying to goad me into going for it. Glad I didn't after reading the thread as me and my would have looked stupid. Maybe I need a supercharger ........ #11 Probably less so than someone in a 6 cyl. car mate. The 4 pots are very nimble I believe. Tony. #12 Yes, the M44 is just as nimble as the MX5/Eunos, and much better built. #13 I think Mx5s are great but the Z3 is SOOO MUCH prettier. The Mazda looks like a white good in comparison (IMO). And the Z3 has the big six-cylinder option, which I would gladly sacrifice some handling points for. In my use case, the extra grunt is far more useful in day-to-day driving than better steering or handling. #14 Thanks for the input guys, i would agree with the comments / observations made, i have had the mazda 18 years so hanging on to it for now, presently sorn. The zed is my wifes choice, sorry to say our little problems have knocked her confidence , does not want to take it out on her own. Our last little indulgence was a chrysler crossfire convertable, had it three summers, the zed is a much better car. andyglym Shiny Dust Caps Make Your Zed Go Faster. #15 The latest edition of modern classics has a head to head, MX-5 v's Z3. The MX-5 just takes the crown, in their view. #16 The latest edition of modern classics has a head to head, MX-5 v's Z3. The MX-5 just takes the crown, in their view. That's interesting, because the perceived wisdom is the Mx5 is streets ahead of the Z3. I'm guessing the Mazda won on steering and handling and the Z3 won on refinement, comfort and build quality? I've always thought the gap between them can't possibly be as big as people make out. Throw a big six-cylinder into the mix and you'd have a different winner by a bigger margin in my view (but then it wouldn't be comparing apples with apples etc). andyglym Shiny Dust Caps Make Your Zed Go Faster. #17 That's interesting, because the perceived wisdom is the Mx5 is streets ahead of the Z3.

All stated they'd take the keys for the Zed on a long cruise but the MX-5 for the short twisty stuff. Rated the Z3 engine better too. #18 Only thing I would take issue with is the engine thing. The Mazda twin cam is a great engine. Tony. andyglym Shiny Dust Caps Make Your Zed Go Faster. #19 Only thing I would take issue with is the engine thing. The Mazda twin cam is a great engine. Tony. Not had one so can't comment but they said the MX-5 ran out of puff top end. #20 Thought i would add an update to this old thread. I have had the zed for two years now, the mx5/eunos i had for 18 years was sold 18 months ago. I have been won over by the z3 in the past two years. Thank you to the mods and all for your contributions for to a great forum. Killer2005 Original Poster 18,515 posts 207 months Saturday 15th January 2011 I have been thinking about my next car, and have been thinking that I need a RWD sports car for about 4-5k. There was an option of going slightly over my budget for something along the lines of a Caterham or a Honda S2000, but lack of suitable storage places and insurance prices have put these ideas to bed, so its down to the Z3 vs more interestingly, I'm leaning more towards the Z3 than the MX5. Largely due to the fact that my commute at the moment is nearly all dual carriageway or motorway, and I really don't get enough time on twisties So sensible thinking or has insanity finally taken over me? Saturday 15th January 2011 S2000 is cracking and in terms of speed and sound is fantastic and an easy car to live with so would be worth the extra stretch,if not I would advise the newest shape of the MR2 formally known as the MR-s plus you'd have spare cash if you went for one of these vvti 0-60 8 secondsair con in someplus it's a forgiving mid engined car which is great for daily commuting and is also at home on a trackday or 4 if not then I'd say the Mx5 purely because it's a great car , plenty of enthusiasts , plenty of tuning scope etc hope that helps ya chap Saturday 15th January 2011 The MX5 is the better sports car, but the Z3 (assuming you're talking about an I6) may well be the better GT. Neither is really designed for motorways.

MR2 Spyder is arguably a better drive (certainly more of a sports car in terms of handling than the Z3) although a front engined RWD is more progressive and easier to have 'leet drift fun' with than a 'midship runabout'.Where it falls down is a complete lack of storage space compared to just about every other cabriolet (and in my humble opinion that is really the only insurmountable negative point). That said, I am not sure if a rear luggage rack is as it is a mid(engined)-ship, the cabin is quite big compared to an MX5 (relatively speaking) and there is usable space in the passenger footwell. There is a bit of space in the front boot and behind the seats too, but no rear 'boot' like a Mk2 MR2 or boxster by texasjohn on Saturday 15th January 20:46 Saturday 15th January 2011 Saturday 15th January 2011 Definitely or Z3. Brilliant cars and for 5k you can find a good one of either. I've sold my Z3 six months ago for It needed is absolutely nothing wrong with Z3 on a motorway. One thing - wind deflector is a must if you are thinking of roofless m/way you want it quieter with roof up you can buy an optional engine in is very nice to drive in town too, plenty of torque at low revs. redgriff500 said: Z3 is not a sportscarOh really?

Saturday 15th January 2011 I had a weekend in a Z3 when looking to upgrade the MX5. No way is it a sportscar. It was neither confidence inspiring, that quick, or fun. I bought a Chimaera. Saturday 15th January 2011 A 2 seater sportscar isn't what you want for a commute in my opinion, something bigger, more comfortable and wafty would be more suited.. I'm sure, though, that you have already considered Z3 is the worst of both worlds, it's neither as fun as an MX-5 nor as comfortable as a mondeo or other motorway muncher. A Z3 is likely to cost you a lot more than an MX-5 or a mondeo in running money would go on a mk MX-5 with a hard top (and leather if possible, but the hard top would be more of a priority).

I'd be willing to you get quotes again, don't make the mistake of getting quotes through a normal insurance company which you would use to get quotes for most the other more standard a kit car specialist such as Adrian Flux, Caterham insurance, MSM insurance (personal vote for them) and many more. Due to being a kit car (factory built or built by yourself), it's cheaper to normal cars in the same way classic insurance is insurance it's self is the same. I have mine insured for 10K miles per year (could be unlimited) as I use it as my daily and only car, living outside in a communal car park for flats and houses. 3rd party insurance to drive other cars, free windscreen cover or a limited amount of track day cover free over the year. Anyway, get a quote through one of the above mentioned people and see how it comes out. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. Killer2005 Original Poster 18,515 posts 207 months Saturday 15th January 2011 Its the lack of useful places for a Caterham to live thats putting that idea off. Where I live now I could quite happily do it as its quite out of the way, but where I would be moving to I would'nt want to keep a caterham as it would be on street parking, and not the better places in Leeds to be keeping one is local and I'm really quite temped but I would forsee the worst happening Gassing Station | General Gassing | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff Posting Rules Showing nationwide pricing.
