2022 Mazda CX-5 Sport Edition Auto 2.0L Petrol · FJ72 LGU

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by a clean pass on its most recent MOT. The 2022 Mazda CX-5 passed the test on 26 November 2025 at 5,957 miles with zero defects recorded. This indicates the vehicle currently meets all required safety and emissions standards without any immediate mechanical or structural concerns. The recorded mileage of 5,957 miles is exceptionally low for a vehicle approaching four years of age, averaging roughly 1,489 miles annually. The MOT record shows no prior tests, meaning the vehicle likely sat unused for extended periods or was driven very sparingly before its first MOT at three years old. Such minimal usage suggests limited wear on consumables like brake discs and tyres, though prolonged standing can cause its own issues, such as flat-spotted tyres or brake surface corrosion. Despite the clean MOT, a buyer must inspect the vehicle thoroughly for the specific ailments caused by low mileage and long stationary periods. Check the tyre sidewalls for cracking and the tread for uneven wear, as tyres age regardless of tread depth. Examine the brake discs for surface rust that can cause binding or juddering if the car has sat idle. Suspension components, particularly bushes and shock absorbers, should be checked for deterioration from lack of use rather than wear. Verify the exhaust system for condensation-related corrosion and ensure the engine runs smoothly without misfires that can plague infrequently used vehicles.
