Mazda MX5 has chosen the British International Motor Show to show off it's latest version of the classic Mazda MX5. For the first time the Mazda MX5 will be available with a folding hardtop roof similar to the Mercedes SLK.

Unlike the Mercedes SLK though, the roof will fold into a vertical space behind the driver allowing for much more boot space.

The new model has surprised many of those in the industry as the Mazda MX5 has always been regarded as a 'no frills' sports car. However, the success of the Peugeot 206 and 306 cc models have proved that an affordable hard-top convertible is a popular option.
