2005 Mazda MX-5 1.6L Petrol · KV55 KLM

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passes over the last three years. The most recent test conducted in September 2025 at 35,630 miles resulted with no recorded defects or advisories. This follows a period of clean passes in 2024, 2023, and 2022, indicating that the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard despite its age. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 21-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,700 miles per year. Between October 2024 and September 2025, the car covered only 1,620 miles, suggesting very infrequent use. While the single failure in early September 2022 at 31,128 miles indicates a specific issue that was rectified, the subsequent clean test just eleven days later at 31,165 miles suggests the fault was a minor, easily corrected item rather than a sign of chronic mechanical neglect. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis, as low-mileage vehicles are prone to corrosion if they have sat stationary for long periods. The MOT record shows no recurring advisories for suspension bushes or brake components, but the age of the vehicle necessitates a thorough check of sills and wheel arches. Inspect the rubber components, such as brake lines and suspension boots, for cracking, as these can degrade over time regardless of the low mileage recorded.
