2015 Mazda Cx-3 2.0L Petrol · AF65 UKD

The vehicle maintains a clean and stable roadworthiness record, having passed its most recent inspection on 7 November 2025 at 67,389 miles without any recorded defects. While the vehicle failed the initial test on 6 November 2025, the lack of recorded failures suggests a minor administrative or testing error rather than a mechanical fault, as the subsequent pass occurred the following day at the exact same mileage. The absence of advisories across the last four years of testing indicates a high standard of preventative maintenance and suggests the previous owner addressed wear items before they reached failure thresholds. Annual mileage accumulation remains consistent with typical usage patterns for a vehicle of this age. Between the November 2022 test at 47,689 miles and the November 2025 test at 67,389 miles, the vehicle covered roughly 19,700 miles, averaging approximately 6,500 miles per year. This steady usage profile is preferable to long-term storage, as it keeps mechanical components like seals, gaskets, and drivetrain fluids in regular operation. The consistent mileage progression suggests the vehicle has been used for routine transport rather than sitting idle for extended periods, which helps mitigate risks associated with seized components or degraded rubber elements. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the condition of the suspension bushes and the integrity of the exhaust system, as these components often reach their service life on a vehicle of this age despite a clean MOT history. Although the records show no structural corrosion, a thorough visual check of the sills and wheel arches remains necessary to confirm the vehicle has not been subjected to poor repairs or hidden moisture ingress. Verify that the brake discs show no signs of scoring or pitting, as these can sometimes be overlooked during annual inspections if the pad material remains within legal limits. Given the clean history, the primary concern for a new owner will be ensuring that scheduled servicing intervals for the engine oil and transmission fluid have been met, as these are not captured by the MOT testing process.
