2016 Mazda Cx-3 2.0L Petrol · BV66 AAE

The 2016 Mazda CX-3 demonstrates stable roadworthiness with no defects recorded in its last five consecutive MOT tests, the most recent of which was on 2025-08-29 at 75,601 miles. All tests from 2021 to 2025 showed full compliance, indicating consistent maintenance and no emerging mechanical issues. The vehicle’s annual testing schedule aligns with standard practice, and the absence of advisories or failures suggests the previous owner prioritized basic upkeep. Mileage progression shows regular usage, with annual increments of approximately 7,500–8,000 miles, reflecting typical wear for a 10-year-old vehicle. The 2025 test at 75,601 miles followed a 2024 test at 66,713 miles, a 2023 test at 56,950 miles, and so on, with no gaps or anomalies in the recorded data. This steady pattern implies consistent operation rather than prolonged inactivity or excessive strain. The vehicle’s age and mileage are in line with industry expectations, though higher-than-average usage could accelerate wear on components like suspension bushes or brake discs. While the MOT history lacks specific mechanical faults, a buyer should verify the condition of suspension components, including coil springs and bushings, which may degrade over time without visible indicators. The absence of exhaust or corrosion advisories is positive, but a physical inspection of the underbody for rust is advisable, particularly in regions prone to road salt. Brake systems and tyre tread should also be checked, as these are common wear items that may not trigger MOT failures until critical stages. Overall, the vehicle’s maintenance record supports its roadworthiness, but in-person scrutiny of high-mileage components is recommended.
