Jaw dropping collection :-)

Some Eunos stuff
Got the Roadster velour cap from the shop options and the leather wax spray together with a maintanance shop options from 10/1989.
The Micro Star microfiber cloth came in the Mazda packaging, too.
Besides the SR limited brochure from 8/1997. It´s the last Eunos Roadster special edition.

I guess these photos from the Palpitations Vol.2 are quite interesting because there are only a few photos of dealers at the time.

Hello
today again some paperwork and some special facts...
I got the last missing Eunos Roadster main dealer brochure which is the rarest. A Minkara member and also a collector called it the 1.5 brochure.
This one is from 07/1994 and externally the same as the blue one from 03/1994 (last 1.0 brochure).
In terms of content the blue 1.5 brochure is for the most part the same as the first 2.0 brochure (red cover with white letters), which features the series 2 NA8C Roadsters (green Roadster emblem).

For the past winter I left the car in a body shop which is meanwhile a contact point for MX5 throughout Germany.
The car itself has seasonal approval which means I am not allowed to drive it on the road for a freely selectable period.
You have to chose this before the car registration. Main point was to repair the rear sills and welding holes behind the front bumper mount and
behind the rear panel/trunk seal.
What it looked like...
Last week I replaced the coolant expansion tank and the radiator which is a new SPS Motorsport item.

In the meantime I ordered a new dashboard. The old hard plastic becomes brittle and cracks. So it is time to replace it in the near future.
I ordered it from Maruha and it was sent as part of a bulk order.
Happily I found a set of the yellow Cibie oem fog lights. They came with a new set of IODE 40 replacement lights.
Last weekend there was the first meeting in almost 2 years. It was organized by SPS Motorsport at the Mazda Frey Museum Augsburg, Bavaria.
Here is a short video.
It was nice to drive the Eunos around 1000 km that weekend.
Next to a nice RX-7.
A highlight for me was the newest exhibit - the MX81 concept car.

The MX-5´s and the Roadster coupe are now situated on a steep curve.
If you should stay in Germany, the museum is a great place to go. Also worth seeing because of the rare vehicles and changing exhibits.

I don't think so Marco. I felt like I was looking for ages.

While browsing the internet and old Eunos magazines there was the nice fact that some
Eunos dealers had the Eunos Roadster driving simulator in their shops.
(picture from the Styling Eunos magazine No.02)
One day I stumbled across two challenge cards for the simulator which was a nice find for the collection.
Amazing that things like this still appear over 30 years later and someone keeps stuff like that.
Here is an article about the simulator with some pictures. (I hope it´s ok to post this)
https://mx-5nb.com/2021/10/18/drivingsimulator/
Some information:
The simulator was developed (collaborated) from Namco and Mazda in 1989. The simulator was based on the game "winning run"
but instead of using a single monitor, the simulator had three.
You can open the driver´s side door and take place on the driver´s seat. The hazard switch is used as game mode button.
Only limited Eunos dealers had this simulator and credits were counted by inserting a game card like a telephone card.
This sticker only appeared in the 9/1995 shop options and was available in two sizes and three colors, red, white and black.
Lastly 2022 had a special piece of clothing for me.
Even if the size L is to small this workshop suit is a nice collector´s item. I hope you enjoy things like that, too.

This thread is super cool. So many obscure items. Wonderful collection I might add.
