2017 Mazda CX-5 2.2L Diesel · AV17 HXM

The vehicle demonstrates a highly stable and exemplary maintenance record, having passed its most recent MOT on 17 September 2025 with zero defects recorded. This clean bill of health follows a consistent trend of fault-free inspections stretching back to the September 2023 and September 2024 tests. While the vehicle failed an initial test on 15 September 2022, it passed just six days later on 21 September 2022 without any recorded defects, suggesting that the initial failure was likely a minor administrative or easily rectified issue that did not indicate systemic mechanical neglect. With a total recorded mileage of 44,807 miles at nine years of age, the vehicle averages approximately 4,979 miles per annum. This low-mileage profile indicates light usage, which is generally favourable for drivetrain longevity. However, vehicles that sit for extended periods can sometimes develop issues related to seized brake components or perished rubber seals. The lack of recurring advisories throughout the history suggests the previous owner maintained the vehicle to a high standard, avoiding the common pitfalls associated with deferred maintenance. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on components that typically suffer from age-related degradation rather than high-mileage wear. Inspect the brake discs for signs of surface corrosion or pitting, as low-mileage cars often exhibit these symptoms if the brakes are not worked hard enough to keep surfaces clean. Check the condition of the suspension bushes and the integrity of the exhaust system for any signs of rot from sitting idle. Given the pristine MOT history, the vehicle appears to be a well-preserved example, but a thorough check of the tyres for sidewall cracking remains prudent due to the car's age.
