2010 Mazda 6 2.2L Diesel · DL10 AAV

The Mazda 6 carries a current MOT pass from 25 November 2025 at 163,865 miles, establishing legal roadworthiness at that date. Across the supplied record the mechanical trend reads stable, with every test from 14 June 2023 through to the latest entry logging no defects. The two failures logged on 3 November 2025 at 163,842 miles and 17 November 2025 at 163,854 miles, both with no defects recorded, sit as anomalies that neither confirm nor deny underlying faults; the subsequent pass eight days later with zero defects suggests either administrative rejection or off-record rectification. Mileage progression aligns with typical use for a 2010 vehicle. The June 2023 test at 143,233 miles and the June 2024 test at 153,521 miles show 10,288 miles covered in twelve months. By the November 2025 pass at 163,865 miles the car added 10,344 miles over roughly seventeen months, a slightly reduced annual rate near 7,200 miles but still consistent with a commuter history. The DVSA dataset is sparse, offering only five entries across three years, and the clean defect columns provide little insight into consumable replacement cycles. Given the absence of recorded advisories, a prospective buyer must treat the high odometer reading as the primary risk indicator. At 163,865 miles the front lower suspension bushes and anti-roll bar links will likely exhibit play; we advise a ramp inspection of these components. The tester flagged no corrosion, yet a 16-year-old Mazda 6 demands close visual checks of sill seams, rear axle mounts and subframe for structural rust that an MOT may tolerate until perforation. Brake discs and calipers should be measured for wear and binding despite the clean emissions and braking outcome in November 2025. Previous owners sustained a fault-free test profile, but the twin November failures with empty defect lists imply either lax presentation or skipped minor fixes before proper submission. Inspect the tyre tread depths and wiper condition as basic upkeep items, and request the test centre documentation for the two null failures to confirm no hidden mechanical rejection.
