2017 Mazda MX-5 2.0L Petrol · AV17 DKF

The 2026‑02‑12 MOT at 47,124 miles passed with no defects recorded, confirming that the vehicle is currently roadworthy and that the maintenance trend has remained stable across all recent tests. The mileage shows a steady increase of roughly 5,200 miles per year since the 2023 test, with no abrupt jumps; the interval from 2023‑02‑10 (31,165 miles) to 2024‑02‑22 (36,433 miles) adds 5,268 miles, and the subsequent rise to 41,660 miles by 2025‑02‑07 mirrors that pattern, indicating consistent use rather than long periods of inactivity. A buyer should therefore examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, inspect the brake discs and calipers for binding or uneven wear, and look for structural rust on the chassis and wheel arches, as these components are prone to deterioration even when MOTs show no defects. The condition of the exhaust system, tyre tread depth, and any previous advisories should be verified in person to ensure that the low mileage has not masked underlying mechanical neglect.
