2015 Mazda 3 2.0L Petrol · FN15 DXR

The 2015 Mazda 3 presents a highly stable and exemplary maintenance trend, culminating in a completely clean pass at its most recent MOT on 2 March 2026 at 72,273 miles. The absence of any defects or advisories across the last five consecutive annual tests indicates a vehicle that has been consistently maintained to a high standard. This unblemished record suggests the previous owner addressed wear items proactively rather than waiting for components to fail, reflecting diligent ownership and care. The mileage accumulation aligns perfectly with typical light-use patterns for an eleven-year-old vehicle. Between the March 2022 test at 46,945 miles and the March 2026 test at 72,273 miles, the car has covered roughly 25,000 miles over four years, averaging approximately 6,500 miles annually. There are no anomalous gaps or sudden spikes in the recorded distances, which rules out long periods of standing that can cause tyre flat-spotting or brake disc corrosion, and confirms steady, regular use. Given the entirely clean MOT history, there are no recurring structural or mechanical faults to flag. A pre-purchase inspection should still focus on the typical wear items associated with a 72,000-mile vehicle. Check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for age-related deterioration, and inspect the brake discs and pads for wear, as these consumables approach replacement intervals regardless of the clean test results. Examine the exhaust system for corrosion and verify the tyre tread depths and sidewall condition, ensuring the rubber has not hardened due to age even if the tread remains legal.
