MAZDA 62019 · 2.0L PETROL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful MOT test on 19 March 2026 at 60,789 miles. The maintenance trend shows a reactive pattern where mechanical failures are addressed immediately. While the car failed just one day prior due to a fractured offside rear anti-roll bar linkage and excessive play in the nearside front track rod end ball joint, these repairs were completed to secure a pass. This indicates the owner is willing to rectify safety-critical suspension components once they fail. The mileage progression is consistent with a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,700 miles per year. Between the March 2024 test at 42,732 miles and the February 2025 test at 51,649 miles, the car covered roughly 9,000 miles in eleven months. This steady usage suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods periods, which is generally beneficial for maintaining rubber components and brake seals, preventing the corrosion often associated with long periods of inactivity. A physical inspection should focus on the front suspension geometry to ensure the repairs to the track rod end were executed correctly and no other bushes or joints are developing play. The 2024 failure regarding an ineffective windscreen wiper suggests basic consumable maintenance might be overlooked, so the buyer should check the condition of the blades and motor. Given the lack of advisories in the most recent pass, the chassis appears structurally sound without significant corrosion, but a standard check of the underbody remains necessary for a Mazda of this age.
