Not content with delivering just two special-edition Sport Black models this year, Mazda has brought the trim level to its range-topper – the MX-5 RF.

The iconic sports car follows on from the 2 and 3 hatchbacks in receiving Sport Black as a trim level in 2018, and in a similar fashion.

Hop inside and you’ll find model-unique floor mats, scuff plates and badging. As for equipment, this is based on the existing SE-L Nav grade meaning out-of-the-box features include cruise control, keyless start, LED headlights, heated front seats and a seven-inch touchscreen infotainment display with navigation.

The Sport Black also gets those heated seats wrapped in leather, rain-sensing wipers, rear parking sensors, automatic headlights and a limited-slip differential for no extra cost.

Pricing for the Mazda MX-5 RF Sport Black begins at £25,695 and will go on sale from May 28. There’s also only 300 examples, so you should act fast to avoid disappointment.

Peter Allibon, sales director at Mazda UK, said: “I’m delighted that we can offer an exclusive RF model to our customers. With it joining the Z-Sport convertible in the line-up, we now have an unrivalled choice of MX-5s in the range, which means that anyone wanting to drive a distinctive and stylish roadster can find what they need with one of our special edition models.”
