2015 Mazda 6 2.2L Diesel · FD15 ZST

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following its most recent MOT on 30 June 2025 at 90,497 miles. The maintenance trend shows signs of improvement after a period of recurring failures. While the car failed just 22 miles prior due to a fractured nearside rear coil spring, the subsequent pass with no recorded defects indicates that the current owner is willing to address immediate, safety-critical mechanical faults once they are identified by the tester. At 90,497 miles, the Mazda 6 has averaged approximately 8,227 miles per year, which aligns with typical UK usage for an eleven-year-old vehicle. The record shows consistent annual testing, with roughly 6,000 miles driven between July 2023 and July 2024, and another 3,785 miles leading into the June 2025 test. This steady usage suggests the vehicle is not sitting for long periods, which often helps prevent the premature degradation of rubber components and brake seals. A buyer should pay close attention to the rear suspension and wheel assemblies due to recurring issues in the history. The nearside rear road wheel was flagged as slightly distorted in both July 2023 and July 2024, and the fractured coil spring in 2025 suggests a history of hard impact or significant stress on that corner. The previous reports of tyre perishing and structural tears in 2024 indicate a past lack of preventative maintenance, so a thorough physical inspection of the current tyres for sidewall cracking and a check of wheel rim integrity is essential to ensure no hidden damage remains.
