Massive missfire issue which has got so bad it's pretty much undrivable. Going to see if I can limp it down to an MX5 specialist in Portsmouth on saturday morning so they can take a look at it as I'm not going to start throwing money and parts at hoping something will fix it. I suspect the coil pack is breaking down but at £200 it's not something I can afford to buy on a whim.

Portsmouth.   MX5Parts?  They know all there is to know, but you may have to pay a bit extra.

I can get a used one but even they're £50. The place in Portsmouth also breaks MX5's so if they can diagnose the fault I can get the used bits from them.
