I've done 130,000 miles in my Mazda MX5 (Miata/Eunos Roadster) in the 6.5 years since I bought it. I run into people in the MX5 owners club with cars the same age that have not yet covered 10,000 miles.

What is the point of owning a fun sports car and then driving it less than 2,000 miles a year ? Odd people

As a sign of Mazda reliability, so far:

- I changed my first set of front disks and pads at about 100,000 miles
- I haven't yet changed my first set of rear disks and pads (got them ready to go on, but the old ones are still working just as they always did)
- I have only just had to replace my exhaust after 6.5 years of the car standing outside 24/7
- the only "failures" I have had with the car (exlcuding the exhaust) are; dead battery after six months of ownership and a failed coolant hose (which was on the car from new) a couple of months ago

That said, I now need to spend lots of money on a new roof and a new rear bumper (after I fried my old one when the exhaust failed on me).
