Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

This 2003 Mazda MPV has passed its most recent MOT in July 2025, but the history reveals a concerning pattern of neglect regarding basic maintenance. The primary risk is the recurring failure and advisory notes regarding perishing tyres. Across three years, every single tyre has been flagged for cracking or damage. This suggests the vehicle has spent significant time stationary, allowing the rubber to degrade regardless of the tread depth. The low mileage of 83,971 miles over 23 years confirms the car has been under-used. While this means less mechanical wear on the engine and drivetrain, it often leads to the deterioration of rubber components, seals, and plastics. This is further evidenced by the repeated mentions of oil leaks and perishing tyres. The overall condition trend is stable but poor. The owner appears to be performing the bare minimum to pass the MOT, as the same issues with oil leaks and tyre degradation reappear across multiple years. A buyer should first inspect all four tyres for sidewall cracking and check the dates of manufacture.
