Our Verdict

This is a strong used buy with a clean MOT record and sensible mileage for its age. The 2020 Mazda 6 in blue with petrol 2.0-litre engine shows no recorded defects across three annual tests, making it a low-risk choice for a private buyer.

Given the clean MOT history with passes in 2023 (12,949 miles), 2024 (23,327 miles) and 2025 (35,387 miles), focus your negotiation on service history rather than outstanding defects, as none are recorded. Confirm the vehicle has a full dealer or specialist service record to match its low annual mileage, and check the timing chain and brake condition as preventative measures despite no MOT flags. As no aggregate model reliability data is available, rely on the individual history here which is reassuring, but still budget for a pre-purchase inspection given the lack of model-level failure patterns to compare against.

The 1998cc petrol engine in this Euro 6DG Mazda 6 typically returns mid-40s mpg in real-world driving, keeping weekly fuel costs reasonable for a large saloon or estate. Road tax for a 2020 petrol Euro 6 vehicle should fall in a standard band, and insurance groups for the 2.0-litre Mazda 6 are moderate, though exact figures require a quote using the registration AE70HJD. Estimated annual running costs including fuel, tax, insurance and routine maintenance are around £1,000-£1,300 based on the mileage and engine size.

The MOT history shows no failure types or defect records across all three tests, with only a 2023 note that a rear-view mirror air freshener was removed before testing, so no structural or mechanical concerns are flagged in the data. Inspect the blue paintwork for stone chips given the 35,387 miles of use, and verify tyre tread and brake disc condition even though the 2025 test at 35,387 miles recorded no defects. As no model-specific weak points are available from aggregate data, a general check of suspension and exhaust on this 2020 petrol variant is sensible but not prompted by any recorded issue.

The Mazda 6 (AE70HJD) has covered 35,387 miles since its September 2020 registration, averaging under 6,000 miles per year which is below typical use for a five-year-old family car. All three MOT tests from 2023 to 2025 passed with no defects, aside from a minor advisory in 2023 about an air freshener on the rear-view mirror. With a Euro 6DG 2.0-litre petrol engine, it offers a practical and well-documented ownership profile.

No aggregate MOT data is available for the Mazda 6, so reliability assessment is based solely on this vehicle's individual clean test history.
