2012 Mazda 2 1.3L Petrol · FN62 MSV

The 2012 Mazda 2 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 17 December 2025 at 35,718 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean results across the previous four years. Mileage accumulation has been consistently low for a fourteen-year-old vehicle. The record shows 27,399 miles in December 2021, rising to 29,370 by December 2022, 31,254 in December 2023, 33,278 in December 2024, and 35,718 in December 2025. That equates to roughly 2,000 miles added each year, or about 2,551 annually across the vehicle's life. No gaps or sudden accumulation appear in the data; the DVSA history is sparse but uniformly clean, with zero advisories or failures logged. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection before purchase. Low mileage combined with the car's age means extended periods of standing are likely, which accelerates perishable component degradation not always visible in a pass result. Rubber suspension bushes, door seals, and brake caliper pistons may have hardened or seized despite no tester flags. Corrosion on structural underbody members and brake discs should be physically checked given the vehicle's 2012 manufacture date. The clean MOT trail implies previous owners kept basic statutory compliance but offers no evidence on intermediate servicing such as coolant changes or timing chain tension.
