2011 Mazda 3 1.6L Petrol · BJ11 ABU

The 2026-01-06 MOT at 95,131 miles passed with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance record. Earlier tests from 2023 to 2024 also showed passes, except for a 2024-01-04 failure that recorded no defects, suggesting any issues were resolved before the subsequent successful inspection. Mileage has risen from 78,124 miles in February 2023 to 95,131 miles in January 2026, an average of about 5,000 miles per year, which aligns with the vehicle’s 15‑year age and typical usage patterns. The annual intervals between tests are consistent, reflecting regular testing rather than sporadic use. A physical inspection should therefore concentrate on suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, check brake calipers for binding, examine brake discs for scoring or corrosion, and assess the chassis and wheel arches for structural rust, while also confirming exhaust emission levels. Overall the record shows consistent annual testing with no recurring faults, suggesting the car has been cared for, but a buyer must still verify the condition of wear items and structural integrity before purchase.
