Our Verdict

A strong recommendation for buyers seeki

The primary point for negotiation is the braking system; the most recent MOT flagged both front brake pads as wearing thin and discs as pitted or scored. You should request that these be replaced or factor the cost into your offer.

Check the service records to confirm regular oil and filter changes for the 1349cc engine. While the mileage is low, ensure the vehicle has not spent excessive time stationary, which can sometimes lead to the pitting seen on the brake discs.

The 1.35L petrol engine is typically economical for city driving and should fall into a reasonable insurance group for a small hatchback. Maintenance costs for this model are generally moderate, though wear-and-tear items like brakes will now be due.

Annual costs will include the standard VED tax for a 2014 petrol vehicle and routine servicing. Based on the engine size and model type, total annual expenditure is expected to be modest.

Prioritise an inspection of the front brakes, specifically looking for the pitting and scoring mentioned in the September 2025 MOT. Check the thickness of the pads to determine if they require immediate replacement.

Referencing the model's aggregate data, inspect the suspension arms and coil springs for any signs of corrosion or fatigue, as these are common failure points for the Mazda 2. Finally, verify that all headlamps are functioning correctly, following the dipped beam failure recorded in October 2024.

This grey 2014 Mazda 2 has recorded 53,361 miles, which is below the average for its age. The MOT history shows a consistent pattern of passes, with one failure in 2024 for a headlamp and recent advisories in September 2025 regarding the front brakes.

With an average MOT pass rate of 79.6% across 127,934 vehicles, this model is generally stable, though it is prone to suspension and lighting issues.
