Our Verdict
Caution advised due to a failed MOT and recurring suspension issues, despite recent passing tests. Thorough inspection is essential before purchase.
Prioritise checking the suspension system, particularly the nearside front suspension arm ball joint and offside front lower arm, which have shown corrosion and wear. Insist on a full service history to verify maintenance of critical components. Negotiate the price to account for the failed MOT and potential repair costs. Be wary of the vehicle's high mileage and the impact of diesel engine ownership on long-term reliability.
Diesel fuel economy for the 2.2L engine is moderate, with combined figures around 40-45 mpg. Road tax in 2026 would be £140 annually (standard rate for diesel vehicles registered before 2017). Insurance group is likely mid-range, but exact details require further research. Maintenance costs may be elevated due to suspension repairs, with ball joint replacements potentially costing £200-£400. Estimated annual running costs: £1,200-£1,600 including fuel, tax, and basic maintenance.
Focus on the suspension system, including ball joints and lower arms, for further corrosion or wear. Check tire tread depth and condition, as worn tires were noted in multiple MOTs. Inspect the windscreen for damage that may require replacement. Examine the underbody for hidden corrosion, as covers prevented full inspection in the 2026 MOT. Verify that all repairs from the 2024 failed MOT have been completed and documented.
This 2015 Mazda 6 has a mixed MOT history, including a failed test in 2024 due to worn suspension components and tire issues. While the 2026 MOT passed with minor corrosion, the vehicle shows signs of wear. Mileage of 131,001 miles is slightly above average for its age, and no model-wide reliability data is available to offset these concerns.
No aggregate reliability data available for the Mazda 6 model, but this vehicle's MOT history highlights potential concerns with suspension components and corrosion resistance.
