MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

22 MOT tests are recorded for this 1991 Mazda Mx-5 (H151 EFB) between June 2006 and July 2026.

The record contains 15 passes and 7 failures.

The most recent test on 17 July 2026 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 7 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (7 issues), Lighting (4 issues), Tyres (4 issues), Windscreen (2 issues), Steering (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 15 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.

Recorded failure items include: “Exhaust emissions carbon monoxide content excessive (8.2.1.2 (b))”; “Offside Front Track rod end ball joint dust cover excessively damaged so that it no longer prevents the ingress of dirt ”; “Nearside Front Track rod end ball joint dust cover excessively damaged so that it no longer prevents the ingress of dirt”.
