Our Verdict
A solid purchase option for those seekin
When inspecting this specific vehicle, pay close attention to the suspension components. The MOT history from 2022 and 2023 shows multiple advisories regarding suspension arm pins and bushes across both front and rear axles. Ensure these have been addressed or check for any knocking sounds during a test drive.
Given the 2.2L diesel engine, you should verify if the vehicle has been used for a mix of motorway and urban driving, as high-pressure fuel systems and DPF filters in these models benefit from regular long-distance runs. Ask for evidence of regular oil changes to mitigate potential engine wear common in high-torque diesel units.
The 2191cc diesel engine is designed for efficiency on longer journeys, though running costs will vary based on driving style. You should expect moderate fuel economy typical of a mid-sized diesel SUV. Tax and insurance groups will depend on the specific trim level, but the engine size places it in a mid-range bracket.
Maintenance costs should be budgeted for, particularly regarding the suspension and tyres, which have appeared in previous MOT tests. An estimated annual budget should account for diesel fuel, standard servicing, and potential wear-and-tear items like tyres or brake components.
Focus your inspection on the suspension system. The MOT records for 2022 and 2023 specifically flagged worn suspension arm pins or bushes on the nearside and offside, both front and rear. Even if these were repaired, check for any uneven tyre wear which could indicate alignment issues.
Additionally, inspect the condition of the tyres. The 2021 and 2022 MOTs recorded issues ranging from cuts to cracking and perishing. Check the current tread depth and look for any signs of sidewall damage or age-related perishing on the current set.
This 2016 black Mazda CX-5 has covered 54,527 miles, which is significantly lower than the model average of 7,905 miles per year for its age. While the most recent MOT tests in 2024 and 2025 recorded no defects, the vehicle has a history of suspension-related advisories and tyre issues. Overall, the mileage profile is a strong point for this 2.2L diesel variant.
Aggregate data for this model shows an 85% MOT pass rate, with common failure points being tyres, anti-roll bars, and suspension arms.
