2020 Mazda CX-30 SE-L Mhev 2.0L Petrol · GX70 JLU

The 2025‑11‑01 MOT at 40,237 miles confirms the Mazda CX‑30 remains roadworthy, with no defects recorded and a pass outcome that mirrors the three previous tests, indicating a stable maintenance trend. Mileage has risen from 23,031 miles in October 2023 to 40,237 miles by November 2025, an increase of 17,206 miles over roughly 28 months, or about 7,350 miles per year, which exceeds the typical 6,700‑mile annual average for a six‑year‑old vehicle and suggests more intensive use than the age alone would imply; the gap between the 2023‑10‑26 test and the 2024‑10‑08 test spans 11 months and covers 7,932 miles, while the interval to the 2025‑11‑01 test adds another 9,274 miles in 13 months. A buyer should therefore focus on the suspension components—bushes, coil springs and dampers—since the mileage pattern indicates higher stress, and verify that the rear brakes are not binding, the brake discs are free of scoring, and the calipers move freely; structural rust under the wheel arches and sills, as well as the condition of the exhaust system and emissions results, should also be examined closely. Because the MOT history shows no recorded mechanical failures, the primary risk lies in wear items not captured in the test, such as tyre tread depth, wiper blade condition, and fluid levels; a thorough visual inspection and a pre‑purchase service history check will confirm whether the vehicle has been maintained consistently.
