Recalls and complaints

A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Owners filed 34 complaints with NHTSA, most often about power train, unknown or other and air bags; have those parts checked. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.

The figures, translated

The 2.0L 4-cylinder, paired with a 6-speed automatic, drives it. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.

For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 23 litres, from its 7.8 L/100 km rating. At our price setting, driving 100 km costs about $13.65, and a 300 km weekend about $40.95. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,750 a year for 15,000 miles.

Who rents the MX-5

It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.

Space and size

Low and compact, it is a car for the drive more than the cargo.

Rent it for a week first

Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Rent the MX-5 for a week and see how it fits your life.

Which one to look for

Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.

What it costs to run

A 1,000 km month costs roughly $136.50 at our price setting. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$2,750 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
