Absolutely. While events are a great part of club life, there’s no pressure. You can engage as much or as little as you like. While we love to connect in person with our members, many members simply enjoy the magazine, discounts, and online community at their own pace.

100%. Our members range from complete newbies to long-time tinkerers. Everyone’s welcome, and there’s always someone happy to share knowledge or lend a hand. It’s a supportive space to learn and grow.

You’ll unlock exclusive access to events, discounts from a growing list of businesses (including get a free WOF at Armstrongs Mazda Auckland.), our premium TOPDOWN magazine (digital and printed), access to technical advice, member-only forums, classifieds, membership card & club car sticker, and so much more. It’s a small investment for a huge return in connection and community.

Not at all. If you’re between cars or just a passionate fan, our Associate Membership is perfect for you. You’ll still enjoy most of the same benefits and stay connected to the MX-5 scene you love.

Definitely. While we offer the occasional track day, most events are scenic cruises, social meets, car shows, and casual get-togethers. It’s about celebrating the joy of driving, not how fast you go.

While we don’t offer a trial per se, the annual membership is low-cost, and the benefits quickly pay for themselves. Most members find that just one event, one discount, or one issue of TOPDOWN is enough to make it worthwhile. In fact, the majority of our members renew year after year — not just for the perks, but for the friendships, community, and sense of belonging that come with being part of NZ’s friendliest car club. Once you’re in, it’s hard to imagine not being!

Just head to our Join page, choose the membership that suits you, fill in some details, make a payment within a few clicks. Once you’re in, you get instant access to online exclusive members' content and discounts, we'll send out your welcome pack, get access to our Facebook community, and be part of the next chapter of MX-5 NZ adventures!
