MAZDA 2 COLOUR EDITION2014 · 1.3L Petrol

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness, exhibiting a consistently stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 1 July 2025 at 41,942 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded, maintaining a clean sheet across the last five inspections. This suggests the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that does not currently suffer from the mechanical degradation typical of cars of this age. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a twelve-year-old Mazda, averaging approximately 3,500 miles per year. There is a notable four-year gap between December 2019 and March 2023, during which the car covered only 10,765 miles. Since 2023, the usage has increased slightly, covering roughly 10,000 miles over the last two years. This low-frequency use generally indicates less wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though long periods of standing can sometimes lead to dry-related issues like flat-spotted tyres or degraded brake fluid. While the MOT record is clean, the low-mileage history necessitates specific attention during a physical inspection. A buyer should focus on the condition of rubber components, checking for perished suspension bushes or split CV boots that may have perished from age rather than use. Inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, as infrequently used vehicles often suffer from oxidation on the rotors. Additionally, structural integrity around the sills and wheel arches should be verified to ensure that hidden rust has not compromised the vehicle despite the lack of reported mechanical faults.
