MX-5 Roadster Coupe prices revealed

Mazda has lifted the lid on prices for its MX-5 Roadster Coupe.

All Roadster Coupes will come with climate control and the Option Pack from the soft-top model as standard.

That means every Roadster Coupe will have 16in alloy wheels, and a leather-covered steering wheel, gear lever and handbrake.

Buyers can also opt for the 158bhp 2.0-litre engine with either five- or six-speed gearboxes.

Mazda reckons the folding hard top is the fastest-acting roof in the world, taking just 12 seconds to stow away or fold back up.

The new roof does not affect the boot space of the MX-5, and the Roadster Coupe has the same 150-litre capacity as the soft-top model.

Mazda says performance is also unchanged from the soft-top's, because the metal roof adds only 37kg to the weight of the MX-5.

You can pre-order a Roadster Coupe now, and deliveries begin in November.
