Timeless roadster Reveal
African Pride Irene Country Hotel was the venue for this
reveal. Set in the idyllic lawns of the hotel, it was the ideal setting for the
unveiling of this very special car. The MX5 Owners club also had on display all
MX5~s, since the earliest MK1 all the way to the MK3.5.
We met at Irene Mall for a short run to the Hotel, a really
impressive sight of 29 cars riding through this quaint little town. The convoy
made it through ok, although we were somewhat disjointed by traffic lights four
way stops. We were accompanied by Bheki and Nosipho, from Mazda, who took
videos and many tweets and re-tweets, thanks for your assistance, much
appreciated.
We all had some welcome drinks before settling in at our
tables in preparation for the reveal. Thanks to Melane Bezuidenout and her team
for organising this spectacular event. The layout of the marquee with 3
vehicles under cover was most intriguing , due to one of them being somewhat
higher than a MX5, so there was an air of anticipation as we waited for the
reveal.
The floor was handed over to Dave Hughes for his welcome
speech before the unveiling. Then the moment we were all waiting for, the
reveal! Really absolutely worth the wait. This is without doubt the best
looking roadster on the market today!
Still the best bang for buck roadster today! The surprise package was
the CX3, a very good looking MPV and must be up there as one of the leaders in
this niche market. Doreen Mashinini and the crew from Mazda then expounded on
the features of these magnificent cars.
A buffet lunch was the served, and in keeping in line with
the excellence of the day, the meal was excellent and really enjoyed by all.
Our thanks go out to Dave and his team, for treating us to this magnificent day
out.
