PETROLHEADS at this year's Goodwood Festival of Speed in June will have the chance to see the one-millionth Mazda MX-5 put through its paces along with the Mazda MX-5 Speedster and Spyder concept cars.

The landmark car was built at Hiroshima on April 22, 27 years after Mazda began manufacturing this iconic roadster which still holds the Guinness World Record for the best-selling two-seater sports car of all time.

To celebrate the history of the MX-5, and to thank fans and owners the world over, the one- millionth car will appear at fan events around the globe, including the popular Goodwood event.

As well as seeing this trio of special MX-5s, show visitors will be able to experience the World Car of the Year winning all-new Mazda MX-5 on the legendary Goodwood hillclimb on Thursday, June 23.

Jeremy Thomson, Mazda Motors UK managing director, said: "The MX-5 sits at the heart of Mazda's brand and it embodies all that is great about our cars. Its character has strengthened the bond between Mazda and its customers for more than a quarter of a century.

"The production of the one-millionth MX-5 is a landmark and it's great that we can celebrate this with MX-5 owners and fans at the Goodwood Festival of Speed."
