2009 Mazda 2 1.3L Petrol · AJ09 RGZ

The Mazda 2 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 23 January 2026 at 48,566 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing a clean run of examinations. Prior checks on 24 January 2025 at 47,649 miles and 19 January 2024 at 45,769 miles also passed without advisories, showing no worsening mechanical condition across the recorded period. The vehicle is a 2009 model with 48,566 miles on the odometer, averaging roughly 2,857 miles per year. This is low for a 17 year old car. The records show gentle annual accumulation: 44,291 miles in January 2023, 45,769 in January 2024, 47,649 in January 2025, and 48,566 in January 2026. No large gaps or sudden mileage spikes appear. The DVSA data is sparse on faults, with only a failed entry on 24 January 2025 that listed no defects, suggesting an administrative or presentation anomaly rather than a mechanical rejection. A buyer should still inspect the car in person given its age and low use. Standing periods can allow corrosion to develop on structural members, subframes, and brake lines even when tests show clean. The tester recorded no advisories on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or exhaust emissions, but these components degrade with time regardless of mileage. Check for perished rubber, binding calipers from disuse, and hidden rust on sills or floor pan. The clean MOT history implies previous owners kept basic upkeep current, yet the lack of flagged wear means no early warning exists for age related fatigue. A physical inspection beneath the car remains essential before purchase.
