2015 Mazda 3 2.0L Petrol · DG65 XRC

The vehicle's overall roadworthiness is currently satisfactory, as the most recent MOT on 2025-11-04 at 72,459 miles was passed, indicating no immediate critical failure at the end of the inspection. However, the maintenance history reveals a significant gap in the last six-month period, with the most recent test failing on 2024-10-29 at 70,498 miles, suggesting that the vehicle has not undergone a full MOT cycle since approximately 2023-11-02. Regarding the mileage pattern, the vehicle is approximately 11 years old with 72,459 miles, which aligns with the typical range for this age group. The data shows a relatively clean mileage trajectory with no rapid accumulation of wear items, but it is important to note that the mileage has not been maintained for six months since the last test, which could indicate that the vehicle was used less frequently or that the owner has not taken corrective action to preserve the vehicle's condition. In terms of mechanical risks, the MOT record highlights recurring issues with the suspension and brakes, including worn or fractured coil springs and a corroded brake pipe, which are serious structural components. The tester flagged binding rear brakes and failed the windscreen wiper test, indicating that the vehicle may not be able to clear the windscreen effectively. These faults are likely due to corrosion and wear rather than simple consumable issues like worn tyres or wiper blades, suggesting that the vehicle has not been adequately serviced for a long period.
