The 2015 Goodwood Festival of Speed is going to host the UK debut of the third generation Mazda MX-5.

Mazda is the honoured brand this year in Goodwood Festival, and the best way to return the favour apparently is to unveil their most desirable car in the same grounds. The popular roadster will take centre stage on the stand, next to the new supermini 2 and the also new CX-3 compact SUV. Visitors will also get another taste of the legendary and LeMans-winning 787B and many more classic Mazda racers.

Mazda has also opened a pre-order book for those who can’t wait to get their hands on the third generation of the iconic model on www.mazda.co.uk.

Jeremy Thomson, Mazda Motors UK Managing Director said:  “The MX-5 is Mazda’s brand icon and it embodies all that is great about our products. Its fun-to-drive character has strengthened the bond between Mazda and its customers for 25 years. So there’s no better place to showcase the all-new Mazda MX-5 than in front of the enthusiastic crowd at the Goodwood Festival of Speed.”
