2nd Gen R59 Roadster How does your roadster looks like right now

Now, since this is the second thread with a role cage I got curious... Googled a few Miata years and realized many Miata generations didn't have a roll bar.

I don't expect every driver to be racing, yet I was surprised by how many Miata accidents there have been just by doing an image search on Miata roll cage. try the MINI roadster and you'll have a hard time finding one.
Of course the Miata has been sold in much greater numbers to the MINI roadster, so it's natural there will be statistically more accidents.

It does make one wonder how effective roll bars are on the MINI? I'm sure it is good not to get crushed. But how is it going to really protect a passenger from head injury without the type or retention a sport seat provides?
It's probably just there to increase your odds.

Overall, I'm not too worried much at all about it anyway since I'm not racing, and don't do a tone of speedy drive. And the odds are still in my favor. But I have asked myself the question :arf:

 

I knew you would comment...
Still no roadster :biggrin5:

Ouch, poor dummy....

What was the circumstances of your roll over? Street or race?

I totally agree a lot of roll over will happen on the road.
One can never predict being hit by an other vehicle. That said I still think the statistics are in our favor and I'm not going to worry too much about it for as long as I'm an attentive and aware driver, which I am 99% of the time.
