2018 Mazda CX-5 2.2L Diesel · CY68 JCU

The Mazda CX-5 presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 21 July 2025 at 77,359 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable, with every successful test showing a clean sheet and no advisories carried forward. The only blemish is a failed test on 30 June 2025 at 77,221 miles where the DVSA system logs no defects, indicating an administrative or presentational failure rather than a mechanical fault, rectified within three weeks. Annual mileage sits at roughly 9,670 per year against an eight-year life, a typical use profile for this age of vehicle. The records show steady accumulation: 30,902 miles in September 2022, 46,772 by September 2023, 66,655 by September 2024, then 77,221 in June 2025. The gap between the September 2024 and June 2025 entries is shorter than twelve months yet adds only 10,566 miles, consistent with normal private use. No prolonged standing or abrupt high-mileage bursts appear in the data. Given the absence of any recorded advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions across all five tests, the previous keeper clearly kept the car to a standard that satisfied testers without flagged wear. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody for rust, check brake caliper operation and tyre condition, and verify the June 2025 failure cause with the test station, since the blank defect field offers no technical explanation. The clean history supports confidence in the drivetrain and chassis, but the unexplained failure so close to the pass warrants documentary confirmation before purchase. With no recurring faults to track, the risk profile is low for a vehicle of this mileage and age.
