2014 Mazda 2 1.3L Petrol · DG14 RDO

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the latest available MOT data. The most recent inspection conducted on 11 September 2025 at 73,964 miles resulted in no defects, indicating that the car currently meets all minimum safety standards. This follows a period of consistent passes in 2024 and early 2023, suggesting that the owner has addressed any necessary mechanical requirements effectively. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a low-use vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 6,164 miles per year. Between March 2023 at 61,598 miles and September 2025 at 73,964 miles, the car covered 12,366 miles. While there was a failure recorded on 22 September 2023 at 65,289 miles, the immediate repass that same day indicates a minor rectifyable rather than a chronic mechanical decline. The low annual mileage protects the drivetrain and engine from the wear typically seen in high-frequency commuting. While the MOT record is clean, a buyer should still inspect for components susceptible to age-related degradation rather than mileage-related wear. On a 12-year-old Mazda, rubber suspension bushes and coil springs may perish or crack despite the low mileage. Pay close attention to any surface corrosion on the sills and wheel arches, as the MOT test only flags structural integrity issues once rust reaches a significant threshold. Checking the brake discs for pitting is also advisable, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from surface oxidation if left stationary for extended periods.
