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 1990 Mazda Mx-5 (H572 DMY) between August 2006 and May 2023.

The record contains 16 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 13 May 2023 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 6 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (8 issues), Tyres (3 issues), Brakes (3 issues), Steering (3 issues), Suspension (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 9 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: “Front Electrical wiring insecure and connectors likely to become disconnected cabin area (4.11 (a) (ii))”; “Steering wheel has movement relative to the column indicating looseness (2.2.1 (a) (i))”; “Offside Vehicle structure corroded to the extent that the rigidity of the assembly is significantly reduced seat mount (”.
