With 96 percent of these Mazda models being fault-free, the MX-5 also achieved a Reliability Index score of just eight (the lower score, the better the car), while the national average score for individual models was 100. According to the survey, MX-5 owners also benefit from the lowest repair costs with an average repair bill of just £165.
