2006 Mazda MX-5 2.0L Petrol · FM06 FBX

The 2006 Mazda MX-5 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 23 June 2025 at 112,558 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken run of clean annual results since June 2022. The vehicle shows no worsening faults, advisories, or recurring mechanical issues across the supplied record. Mileage sits low for a 20-year-old roadster at 112,558 miles, averaging roughly 5,628 miles per year. The owner added only 1,655 miles between the June 2022 test at 110,003 miles and the June 2025 test at 112,558 miles. A failed test on 9 April 2022 at 109,900 miles shows no recorded defects, an irregularity in DVSA data rather than a clear mechanical fault; the car passed cleanly ten weeks later on 30 June 2022. Sparse entries and zero advisories suggest light use, though long standing periods remain plausible given the low annual accumulation. A buyer should still inspect structural corrosion on sills, subframes, and suspension mounting points, as the MX-5 chassis suffers rust where moisture traps form even when MOT tests record no defects. Check suspension bushes, coil springs, and damper condition for age-related degradation invisible at a pass. Verify brake discs and calipers for seizing after low-mileage dormancy. Confirm the April 2022 failure cause with DVSA, since the missing defect line leaves the reason unverified. Otherwise the history implies conscientious, infrequent use with no deferred consumable neglect evident in the record.
