Mileage and MOT

MOT, from the government's MOT records (DVSA, the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency), as of 2 November 2026: the latest record we hold ran out on 30 October 2026; ask the dealer for the current MOT.

It has had 27 MOTs. The latest, on 13 October 2026, failed.

It failed on: exhaust lambda reading after 2nd fast idle outside specified limits; rear exhaust has a major leak of exhaust gases; nearside rear inner seat belt anchorage prescribed area strength or continuity significantly reduced sill; and 4 more.

Advisories at the latest test: front subframe mounting prescribed area is corroded but not considered excessive; rear subframe mounting prescribed area is corroded but not considered excessive; nearside rear suspension component corroded but not seriously weakened; and 1 more.

Mileage at that test: 105,700 miles. The advert says 105,000 miles, fewer than the MOT record, so ask the dealer which is right.

Advertised mileage is about 29,600 miles higher than the median mileage of a 2006 Mazda MX-5 on AskCar.
