2015 Mazda 2 1.5L Petrol · CA15 SWV

The 2015 Mazda 2 presents a stable and improving maintenance trajectory, culminating in a completely clean bill of health at its most recent MOT on 28 May 2026 at 73,127 miles. That test recorded zero defects or advisories, a marked improvement over previous years where tyre wear and brake component degradation were recurring themes. The current pass, conducted just three weeks ago, confirms the vehicle is mechanically sound and legally roadworthy today. Mileage accumulation sits at approximately 6,648 miles per year over eleven years, which is entirely typical for a small urban or suburban hatchback. The record shows a notable jump of 12,683 miles between the May 2025 test at 60,444 miles and the May 2026 test at 73,127 miles, suggesting a shift from lighter use to more regular driving in the past twelve months. Earlier intervals were more conservative, with roughly 7,000 to 8,000 miles added annually between 2022 and 2024. There are no suspicious gaps or plateaus in the data that would raise concerns about long-term standing or mileage irregularities. Historically, the vehicle has shown a pattern of tyre wear and deterioration that a buyer should verify has been fully addressed. In the July 2022 test at 31,172 miles, all four tyres were flagged for wear close to the legal limit or cracking and perishing. The July 2023 test at 38,169 miles again flagged both rear tyres for cracking and perishing alongside advisories for worn front brake discs and thin front brake pads. By May 2025 at 60,444 miles, both front tyres were worn close to the legal limit and worn on the edge, suggesting possible alignment or inflation issues. The clean 2026 result implies these items were replaced, but a buyer should still inspect the current tyre condition, sidewall integrity, and wheel alignment. The front brake wear advisories from 2023 also warrant a visual check of disc thickness and pad life, as recurring wear in this area can indicate harder use or a dragging caliper that may have since been resolved.
