2017 Mazda 2 1.5L Petrol · DX66 AXG

This Mazda 2 presents a stable and clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 28 April 2025 at 74,339 miles passed without any defects or advisories. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to November 2022, suggesting the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that prevents the accumulation of common wear-and-tear faults. The mileage is typical for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 8,260 miles per year. The distance covered between the May 2023 test at 59,137 miles and the April 2024 test at 68,975 miles shows a slightly higher usage period of nearly 10,000 miles in a year. A minor anomaly appears on 19 April 2024, where the car failed and then passed a day later at 68,940 miles, though the record lists no specific defects for either entry. The absence of any recorded advisories over the last four tests is unusual for a car of this age and mileage. Typically, one would expect to see mentions of thinning brake pads, worn tyre treads, or slight corrosion on suspension components. The lack of these flags implies either a very diligent maintenance regime where parts are replaced before they trigger an MOT advisory, or a lenient testing history. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the underbody and suspension bushes to check for any overlooked corrosion or perishing rubber. Given the clean record, verifying the service history for oil changes and filter replacements is the priority to ensure the mechanical health of the engine matches the clean MOT data. Check the date codes on the tyres to confirm they have been replaced recently, as the MOT record does not highlight any tread depth issues.
