2014 Mazda 6 2.2L Diesel · FX14 KHO

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clear trend of improvement in maintenance discipline. The most recent MOT conducted in February 2024 at 107,691 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that the mechanical issues identified in previous years have been addressed. This suggests the current owner is proactive in rectifying flagged faults rather than allowing them to persist until the next test or a failure. The mileage pattern is consistent with a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,000 miles per year. Between March 2021 and February 2024, the car covered 20,562 miles, representing a steady usage rate. There is now a gap of over two years since the last recorded test in February 2024. Given the current date of June 2026, the vehicle is significantly overdue for its MOT, which should be tested immediately to ensure no significant degradation of safety components has occurred since the last official inspection. A physical inspection should focus on the front suspension and braking system given their documented history. The 2022 test flagged worn inner suspension arm bushes on both sides, and while these passed later, a buyer should still check for play in the steering or perished rubber under stress. The 2021 record noted thin brake pads and pitted discs across all axles, while the 2022 failure showed a twisted front brake hose. Testing the hoses for any signs of delamination or structural damage is essential. The 2023 test also highlighted front tyres worn to the legal limit, which often indicates an alignment issue or worn shock absorbers. The buyer should verify the current tread pattern on all tyres to ensure the vehicle is not currently causing uneven wear. While the history shows a well-maintained vehicle up to 2024, the lack of data for the last twenty-six months means the state of consumables and rubber components remains unknown.
