2016 Mazda CX-5 2.2L Diesel · VK66 ACX

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent and stable maintenance trend. The most recent inspection on 14 November 2025 at 87,243 miles passed with no defects or advisories. This streak of clean records across the last five tests suggests that the previous owners maintained a proactive approach to repairs, addressing potential mechanical or safety issues before they could result in an official MOT failure. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,700 miles annually. Between September 2021 at 48,609 miles and November 2024 at 76,336 miles, the car covered 27,727 miles, representing a steady usage pattern. Since the November 2024 test, the vehicle has covered another 10,907 miles in under eight months. This indicates regular, modern use rather than long periods of standing, which typically benefits the health of drivetrain components and rubber seals compared to low-mileage neglected city cars. While the MOT history is flawless, a buyer should still perform a physical inspection focusing on common CX-5 components of this age. Given the mileage has surpassed 80,000 miles, examine the front control arm bushes and rear dampers for wear, as these often show fatigue at this interval. Check the underside for early surface corrosion on the rear arches and exhaust system, as the MOT tester only flags structural integrity once it reaches a critical threshold. The lack of recorded advisories suggests the brakes and tyres are currently in good condition, but a manual check of pad thickness and disc condition remains a necessary step for due diligence.
