1992 MAZDA RX-72.6L PETROL

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clear improving trend over the last three years. Following a failure in October 2021, the car has passed three consecutive annual tests without any recorded defects or advisories. The most recent test conducted in July 2025 at 128,749 miles confirms the vehicle met all statutory requirements, suggesting that the previous owner has addressed earlier issues and maintained the car consistently. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 34-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,787 miles per year. The data shows a significant drop in usage between March 2023 and June 2024, where only 1,138 miles were covered, followed by a more standard interval of 362 miles in the following year. While low mileage typically reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine, the long periods of standing can lead to degradation of rubber-based components, seized brake calipers, and corrosion in fluid lines. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on structural integrity particularly the chassis and sills, as older Mazda RX-7s are prone to hidden rust. The 2021 failure regarding a worn offside rear tyre and incorrect headlamp aim indicates previous alignment issues or neglect of basic maintenance, which have since been resolved. Given the low annual mileage, you must verify the condition of the suspension bushes, brake hoses, and the age of the tyres to ensure they have not perished from age despite having sufficient tread depth.
