This quality submission flies to us all the way from France. Not the first photographer to be taken by the Roadster’s charms!

It’s now 3 years I decided I’ll buy an NA. For some reasons I never had the possibility to do it, but as I was talking about it, a friend got into it and bought a fresh 1.8 Miata, full of stories.

This car was originally owned by a member of the US Navy and still has related stickers. Then it travelled in UK for some years before it’s new owners moved to France. The car was stock, except the roll-ball and a special shift knob with a clutch command on it.

I made the following shots 2 years ago at the top of Semnoz.









That ride was great, top down at nearly freezing temperatures, and still feeling confortable with a jacket and heater on.

Since then, I met with other members of the Roadster community and shot other cars, but there’s something I like so much in this photoshoot. I’m especially proud of the 2nd one, because I feel like reading an old car magazine when I’m looking at this one.

This photo was took later in 2010, and I also like the feeling of it.



Even in it’s stock and not ultra fast configuration, when I got a drive it gave me instant pleasure, and I think it looks good. Mine should be coming soon, and I’m so excited about that !
