2013 MAZDA CX-52.2L Diesel

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent MOT results. The latest test conducted on 20 February 2025 at 52,547 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating the car currently meets the minimum safety and environmental standards. This follows a period of clean passes since 2022, suggesting that the mechanical and structural components have remained compliant without significant recurring failures over the last three years. The mileage pattern is notably low for a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,000 miles per year. Data shows a significant increase of 10,000 miles between February 2023 and February 2024, followed by another 10,339 miles between February 2024 and February 2025. While low annual mileage generally reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain, the long intervals between tests can sometimes lead to age-related degradation of rubber-based components. The failure in February 2023 at 30,240 miles suggests a minor issue that was rectified immediately to pass the successful re-test. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection focusing on the suspension and braking systems, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from seized brake calipers or perished suspension bushes due to disuse. Although the record shows no advisories, the chassis should be checked for signs of corrosion on the underbody, which is common for vehicles of this age regardless of distance driven. Verify the condition of the tyres for sidew cracking, as low mileage often outlasts rubber before the tread depth reaches legal limits.
