2008 Mazda 6 2.0L Diesel · FL58 VXF

The most recent MOT entry for this 2008 Mazda 6 is dated 22 December 2021 at 120,965 miles, where the vehicle passed with no defects recorded. The same day shows a prior failure with no defects listed, an administrative anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. On the evidence available the maintenance trend is neither improving nor worsening but simply static, as no further tests exist in the four and a half years since. The recorded mileage of 120,965 at the December 2021 test equates to roughly 6,720 miles per year since registration, a typical figure for an eighteen year old family saloon. The history contains only that single dated record, so no accumulation pattern or gap can be judged beyond the fact the car has covered no logged miles in the intervening period to July 2026. A clean sheet with no advisories at 120,965 miles suggests the tester found no worn suspension bushes, corroded structure, or failing emissions at that point. A buyer should physically verify the vehicle has not deteriorated through prolonged standing since the last test. Four and a half years idle invites flat-spotted tyres, seized brake calipers, and underbody corrosion unseen in 2021. The duplicate 22 December 2021 entries warrant a DVSA data check to confirm the pass status is valid. Given the sparse record, inspect coil springs, brake discs, and exhaust integrity on site before purchase. No recurring faults appear in the supplied history, but the age and stalled record mean a fresh independent inspection is essential rather than reliance on the 2021 pass.
