2007 Mazda MX-5 2.0L Petrol · KJ57 ADX

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, passing its most recent MOT on September 29, 2025 at 127,366 miles with no defects recorded. While the record shows a failure on that same date, the immediate pass suggests the owner addressed the specific faults identified prior to the re-test. The lack of advisories across the last three successful tests indicates the vehicle is currently maintained to a high standard regarding mechanical and structural compliance. The mileage pattern is consistent with a 19-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,700 miles per year. The car progressed from 119,605 miles in September 2023 to 123,634 miles in October 2024, and then another 3,700 miles by the September 2025 test. This steady accumulation suggests regular use rather than long periods of storage, which is generally beneficial for maintaining seals and mechanical components by preventing the dry-related failures often seen in stationary older cars. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis and sills, as this generation of MX-5 is prone to corrosion that may not always manifest as an immediate MOT failure until significant damage. Given the clean history, the attention should also shift to the suspension bushes and control arms for signs of perished rubber. Because the mileage is low for the age, checking the condition of the rubber components and brake lines is essential to ensure that age-related degradation has not occurred despite the low annual mileage.
