2017 Mazda CX-5 2.2L Diesel · HD67 AOX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend indicates a reactive rather than proactive approach to repairs. The most recent test in December 2025 at 56,283 miles showed the car passing with advisories for both rear tyres being near the legal limit and showing uneven wear. This follows a pattern where components are often only addressed once they approach failure points or trigger an MOT advisory, rather than being replaced during scheduled service intervals. The mileage profile is consistent with a low-use domestic vehicle, averaging approximately 6,250 miles per year. Between December 2022 at 28,444 miles and December 2024 at 44,241 miles, the vehicle covered 15,797 miles, showing a slight increase in usage compared to the previous period. The low total mileage for a nine-year-old Mazda limits mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine, but the intervals between tests can increase the risk of rubber-based components degrading, as evidenced by the perishing and cracking noted in late 2024. A buyer should conduct a thorough inspection of the braking system to verify if the pitted and scored discs noted in 2023 and 2024 were actually replaced. The recurring mention of thin pads and worn discs across multiple years suggests the owner may be delaying brake-related maintenance. Additionally, the uneven wear and cracking reported on the tyres in 2024 and 2025 warrant a check for alignment issues or dry rot of the rubber due to age rather than mileage. The wiper blades, which caused a failure in late 2024, should be checked to ensure the current set is functional and clear.
