2020 Mazda 3 2.0L Petrol · CA69 UAS

The Mazda 3 presents a clean roadworthiness status. The most recent test on 10 January 2026 at 79,050 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the maintenance trend is stable across all four annual examinations. Every DVSA test from 2023 through 2026 returned a pass with no advisories, indicating the vehicle has not required rectification of mechanical or structural faults at any point in its six-year service life. The mileage pattern shows consistent annual accumulation well above typical use for the model year. The car covered 25,952 miles by 26 January 2023, rose to 44,723 miles on 26 January 2024, then 61,847 miles on 11 January 2025, and reached 79,050 miles by January 2026. That equates to roughly 17,000 miles per year between 2023 and 2026, exceeding the 13,175-mile average cited for the age and pointing to sustained motorway or high-demand usage rather than short urban cycles. No gaps appear in the testing record. A clean MOT history with zero advisories limits the specific mechanical risks a buyer must chase, but the high mileage demands scrutiny of consumable and drivetrain condition the tester did not flag. Inspect the front brake discs and pads for heat crazing or uneven wear, check the suspension bushes and coil springs for fatigue under load, and verify the tyre tread depth across all four corners given the annual distance covered. Given the absence of corrosion, exhaust emission failures, or structural integrity concerns in the official record, the vehicle reflects disciplined upkeep by prior keepers. A pre-purchase inspection should still confirm cambelt or chain tension, gearbox oil condition, and underbody rust protection, as these fall outside MOT scope yet degrade with sustained high-mileage operation.
