2000 MAZDA PREMACY1.8L PETROL

The vehicle is in an unroadworthy state as the last MOT test was conducted over thirteen years ago. The final record from June 2013 at 87,189 miles represents a catastrophic failure involving a multitude of mechanical and structural defects. The maintenance trend shows a period of severe neglect, moving from a clean pass in 2009 to a comprehensive list of safety-critical failures thereafter. Given the lack of any subsequent testing, the vehicle is not legal for road use. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 26-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,353 miles per year. However, the data reveals a significant gap in usage; the vehicle covered only 3,728 miles between November 2010 and June 2012, and has recorded no mileage since the June 2013 test. This pattern suggests the car has sat stationary for long periods, which often leads to the degradation of rubber components, seized brake calipers, and internal fluid corrosion despite the low mechanical wear. A buyer must prioritise a thorough structural inspection of the subframe and suspension mounting points. The June 2013 test identified serious corrosion on the front subframe and excessive corrosion on rear suspension mounting areas, which are structural risks that worsen rapidly when stationary. The record also noted multiple failures in suspension arm bushes and anti-roll bar linkage ball joints, indicating the entire front end assembly likely perished or seized during the years of inactivity. The braking system requires immediate attention due to previous reports of imbalanced brakes, thin pads, and excessively corrosion on the brake pipes. Furthermore, the failed Supplementary Restraint System warning lamp and the insecure bonnet latch indicate that basic safety features are non-functional. Because the vehicle has not moved since the last recorded mileage, all tyres, fluids, and fuel lines must be considered potentially compromised before any attempt is made to return the car to the road.
