2011 Mazda 2 1.3L Petrol · YD11 ABN

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passing results. The most recent test conducted on 16 January 2024 at 51,911 miles resulted in no defects, indicating the car was in good mechanical condition then. While a failure occurred on 26 November 2023 at 51,893 miles, the vehicle passed successfully just three days later, suggesting a minor defect was immediately rectified rather than a systemic mechanical failure. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 15-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,460 miles per year. Data shows a significant gap between the October 2021 test at 47,492 miles and the October 2022 test at 51,203 miles, representing roughly 3,700 miles in a year. The rapid cluster of tests between November 2023 and January 2024, where only 18 miles were covered, suggests the car was either used for very short trips or sat stationary for long periods. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on issues associated with low-mileage age, specifically the degradation of rubber components and fluids. Low use often causes suspension bushes to perish and tyres to sidewall crack regardless of tread depth. Inspect the brake discs for heavy surface corrosion or pitting, as infrequent use allows calipers to seize or rotors to rust. Given the age of the Mazda, a thorough check of the chassis for structural rust is essential, as the MOT record does not show any previous structural issues that might indicate where corrosion typically begins.
