Lokiel, I have no idea what it really is except for that it's my daily driver now :D

The tyres are aftermarket (see attached).

The rollbar makes the chassy so damn stiff that the tyres don't even think about squeeking or sliding before I get scared.

That's the first car I own where that's the case...

Not sure if you knew what I meant, Tamiya produce a remote control MX5 toy and that photo looks just a toy car, it's so tiny and looks too perfect in that shot (one of the reasons MX5s are so endearing IMO).

Like you, I'm an adamant believer in the rollbar providing noticeable chassis stiffness - there's a few threads dismissing this notion but nobody will convince me otherwise based on my own experience and I started with an SE which has the stiffest chassis braces of all NBs (my butt-chassis-stiffness sensor may not be the most accurate in the world but the car felt completely different after the MX5 Plus Twin Hoop roll bar was installed).

When you turn your car on, does it return the favour?

Hopefully, the wildlife in question hasn't injured it's paws, that way it should still be able to use the phone. :wink:
