2014 Mazda 3 2.0L Petrol · CU14 MSX

The Mazda 3 presents as roadworthy following the most recent test on 19 March 2025 at 104,839 miles, where the tester recorded a pass with no defects. The maintenance trend is stable across the visible history, with every annual examination from 2023 to 2025 clearing without advisories once the initial failure was resolved. No worsening mechanical pattern emerges from the data. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a 2014 vehicle, rising from 85,262 miles on 16 March 2023 to 95,176 miles by 27 March 2024 and reaching 104,839 miles at the 19 March 2025 test. That equates to roughly 9,600 miles per year across the recorded span, close to the 8,737-mile annual average for the age. The record is sparse but clean, showing no gaps or sudden accumulation that would suggest neglected storage or excessive commercial use. The two failures dated 15 March 2023 and 18 March 2025 both list no defects, which indicates administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than a mechanical fault on the car. Because the DVSA entries flag nothing on suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, exhaust emissions, or structural corrosion, the history gives no evidence of recurring consumable or structural problems. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of common Mazda 3 wear points not captured by a clean MOT, specifically front suspension lower arms, rear brake caliper operation, and underbody corrosion at sill and subframe junctions. The absent advisories do not confirm component condition, only that the tester found nothing reportable on the days listed.
