2010 Mazda 6 2.2L Diesel · GN10 CCF

This Mazda 6 has maintained a consistent MOT pass history with no recorded defects across the last five annual tests, including the most recent examination on 20 April 2026 at 98,191 miles. The absence of advisories or failings suggests the vehicle has undergone regular compliance checks without major mechanical or structural issues arising between tests. However, the duplicate entry for April 2025—where the same mileage (89,919) appears twice—indicates either an administrative error or a retest after a brief lapse, though no defects were reported in either instance. The pattern implies a stable roadworthiness profile, though the lack of advisories does not preclude hidden wear on high-mileage components like suspension bushes or drivetrain joints. The recorded mileage of 98,191 miles over 16 years aligns with typical usage for this age, averaging around 6,137 miles annually. There are no significant gaps in service intervals, though the jump from 81,195 miles in April 2023 to 86,154 miles in April 2024—a 4,959-mile increase—suggests moderate usage without aggressive driving. The most recent test, just three months ago, confirms the vehicle remains within legal limits for emissions, brakes, and structural integrity, but the lack of mileage between April and July 2026 (just 1,191 miles) may indicate recent reduced use or seasonal storage. A prospective buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of the suspension system, particularly the rear coil springs and bushes, given the vehicle’s age and mileage. The absence of failings does not rule out progressive wear in these areas, which often degrade silently before causing handling issues or binding calipers. Brake discs and pads should also be scrutinised, as repeated high-mileage use may have led to uneven wear or corrosion at the wheel hubs. Structural corrosion, particularly around the wheel arches, sills, and subframe, warrants close examination, as this is a common failure point for vehicles of this era and mileage. Finally, the exhaust system should be checked for leaks or excessive rust, as catalytic converter failures or cracked manifolds can escalate without warning.
