Prices have definitely dropped since covid.Finding one thats worth the money is the tricky part.

I sold the Italia to a bloke on the Central Coast in about 2012. Not sure if he still has her. It still has the same plates.....i looked it up a while ago, it seems to only do about 200kms a year.

Presumably you're monitoring the various Australian MX5 FB pages, as that's where most of the activity is.
