Researched and written in Japan with the full co-operation of the factory, here in definitive detail is the story of the third generation of Mazda's MX-5 - a car that re-invented the affordable lightweight convertible, a breed that many thought was extinct as the 1990s drew near. Successful immediately, the MX-5 (also known as the Miata, or Roadster) spawned many imitators, but remains the world's best selling sports car of all time. The series has now been in production for more than 30 years, with new generations following the concept of the original, much to the delight of fans around the globe.

Born in Coventry, the heart of Britain's motor industry, Brian comes from a family with a proud heritage in the automotive and aviation fields. He trained as a mechanical engineer, and worked for a time at his father's garage. Brian became heavily involved in the classic car scene at 19, and says he turned to writing by accident. He now writes full-time and, since 1990, when his first book was released, he has had over 80 titles published. Brian and his wife, Miho, have two children, and currently live in Chiba, close to Tokyo. His main interests outside of cars include old cameras and bicycles, and the family's love of Thoroughbred horses.
