2016 Mazda 2 1.5L Petrol · CT05 JAR

The 2016 Mazda 2 remains roadworthy with no defects recorded in its most recent January 2026 MOT at 72,967 miles. A consistent pattern of passing tests without issues spans from 2022 to 2026, indicating stable maintenance practices. No advisories or failures suggest the vehicle has been well-maintained, with no emerging mechanical or structural concerns evident in the recorded history. The mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 10-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,300 miles annually. Tests conducted every 12–14 months show steady accumulation, with no abrupt spikes or prolonged inactivity periods. The 2022–2023 interval recorded a slight increase to 7,894 miles, but this remains within normal parameters. The absence of irregularities in mileage or test intervals implies consistent ownership and use, reducing concerns about neglect or excessive wear. While no specific faults are documented, a buyer should verify suspension components such as bushes and coil springs, as these often degrade over time without immediate warning. Brake discs and calipers should also be inspected for uneven wear, and the exhaust system checked for corrosion, particularly if the vehicle has been exposed to harsh environments. The lack of recorded issues does not eliminate these risks but underscores the importance of a hands-on assessment to confirm the vehicle’s ongoing condition.
