2012 Mazda CX-5 2.2L Diesel · EY62 CJZ

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, passing its most recent MOT test on 31 July 2025 at 108,956 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the history reveals a pattern of immediate failures followed by successful passes. In both 2024 and 2025, the car failed the test just days before the scheduled anniversary but passed shortly after rectification. This suggests the previous owner only addressed specific mechanical faults when prompted by a failing test requirement rather than following a proactive preventative maintenance schedule. The mileage profile is consistent with a 14-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,783 miles per year. Between the August 2023 test at 93,818 miles and the July 2024 test at 101,860 miles, the car covered 8,042 miles. The more recent interval shows 7,096 miles covered between July 2024 and July 2025. This steady usage indicates regular driving patterns which generally reduces the risk of internal corrosion in rubber components and brake calipers compared to vehicles with long periods of standing. While the records show no recorded defects on the passing certificates, a buyer must conduct a physical inspection of the components that likely caused the previous failures. Particular attention should be paid to the suspension bushes and control arms for signs of wear, as these are common points of failure on this model. Given the age of the vehicle, a thorough check of the structural integrity along the underside and sills is necessary to ensure that no significant corrosion has developed that was not flagged during the visual MOT inspections.
