From what I understand, E10 is replacing the regular grade fuel. As you say, run your MX5 on ‘premium’ & it’ll be fine.

STOP SCAREMONGERING  use it & stop panicing.... only possible worry is that rubber fuel pipes and components could errode but their easily replaced. also, higher ethenol content can allow tuning for more torque (if you've a suitable setup) but at the cost of economy... can also use a 'Flexfuel' sensor if you want to be clever   Rich.

So only risk of fuel leakage and a massive fire? lol |

Just use it. And if worried, change to gates barrier.
We switched years ago in Sweden without ill effects.
Also. When tuning my car i picked up 18nm at the wheels from only switching from petrol to e85. No tuning it whatsoever.
Ethanol is king.
