2007 Mazda 6 2.3L Petrol · AV57 AEX

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2026-02-03 at 132,387 miles resulted in a failure, though no defects were recorded. This follows a pattern of sporadic failures and passes without specific issues noted, suggesting either incomplete testing or minor non-compliances. The absence of recorded defects in prior tests, including the 2025-02-05 pass at 113,739 miles, indicates a generally stable maintenance history, though the recent failure raises questions about potential unresolved issues. The mileage progression shows an average of 6,968 miles annually, aligning with typical usage for a 19-year-old vehicle. However, the jump from 94,949 miles (2023-01-31) to 132,387 miles (2026-02-03) covers 37,438 miles over 37 months, reflecting consistent use. Notably, the 2025-02-03 failure at 113,589 miles occurred just two days before a subsequent pass at 113,739 miles, implying possible administrative errors or minimal defects that were rectified. The MOT record lacks detailed technical findings, limiting insight into specific mechanical conditions. A buyer should prioritize inspecting the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, as these components often degrade with age and mileage. The braking system, including calipers and discs, warrants scrutiny, as binding or uneven wear could go unrecorded. Structural corrosion, particularly in the underbody or chassis, should also be checked, as it may not appear in MOT data. While the vehicle’s maintenance history appears largely unremarkable, the recent failure and lack of defect details necessitate a thorough pre-purchase inspection to confirm roadworthiness.
