A certified repair shop just gave me a minimal estimate of 5k to fix up my miata. This includes tackling the rust, welding, sanding down and painting.
I really love my tiny car but I can't just put down 5k to get it to pristine condition.
As a yuropoor what is my best alternative? Pls no bully.
How much did you buy it for?
tbqh you shoulda bought one that was in pristine condition to begin with. Thats how this shit works.
Sell it and buy an NB miata with no rust.

Fixing it piece by piece as you can afford it?
Just do the rust and welding m8.
2800 yuropoors. It wasn't really in rough shape when I bought it but it got vandalized a week after I got it. Hence the black roof and side panels.
diy dude, the internet and mazda forums are your friend
You said you really love your car. That love is worth more than the 5k, go for it dude
>vandalized
so someone intentionally rusted your car?
Nah, but they kicked the shit out of it. Winter is just done, so I can now see the damage the salt did. My mx5 is my only car and DD for work.
buy 5 more, they're only like £800 a pop
