2021 Mazda CX-30 SE-L Mhev 2.0L Petrol · FJ21 MFO

The vehicle remains in a roadworthy condition having passed its most recent MOT test in February 2026. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the latest report indicates the first sign of mechanical wear in the recorded history. The tester flagged the offside rear brake disc as worn, pitted, or scored at 48,658 miles, which did not result in a failure but suggests the component is reaching the end of its functional life. The mileage pattern is consistent with a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,700 miles per year. Between the April 2024 test at 31,765 miles and the February 2025 test at 42,373 miles, the car covered over 10,000 miles, followed by another 6,285 miles leading up to the recent February 2026 inspection. This steady accumulation suggests regular use rather than long periods of stationary which often lead to seized brakes or perished rubber components. A buyer should perform a physical inspection of the offside rear braking assembly to determine the depth of the pitting and scoring on the disc surface. Given that this was noted in the February 2026 record, the brake pads should also be checked for uneven wear or heat glazing. While the previous two tests in 2024 and 2025 showed no defects, the transition to an advisory item indicates that the vehicle is now requiring attention to preventative maintenance to prevent a future failure.
