2010 Mazda MX-5 2.0L Petrol · FG10 KHA

The 2010 Mazda MX-5 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 16 February 2026 at 141,446 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing a clean run of annual certificates since February 2023. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a sixteen-year-old roadster, averaging roughly 8,840 miles per year. The record shows 130,081 miles in February 2023, 134,338 miles in February 2024, 138,280 miles in February 2025, and 141,446 miles in February 2026. The only anomaly is a failed test on 22 February 2024 at 134,335 miles, one day before the pass at 134,338 miles, with no defects listed on either entry. This suggests an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault. The sparse, defect-free history gives little evidence of neglected consumables or deferred repairs. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural corrosion on sills, subframes, and suspension mounting points, as the MX-5 chassis is prone to rust despite clean MOT advisories. The tester logged no worn suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake disc issues across the five years, yet rubber components at 141,000 miles warrant hands-on checks for perishing. Given the spotless test record and ordinary mileage, prior owners appear to have maintained the car to a basic roadworthy standard. Verify service history and inspect underside condition before purchase, since MOT passes alone do not confirm preventative maintenance on a sixteen-year-old sports car.
