2009 Mazda 6 2.2L Diesel · KA54 ALY

The 2009 Mazda 6 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent test on 26 August 2025 at 120,250 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. The preceding annual tests in August 2024 at 117,240 miles and August 2023 at 116,899 miles also passed cleanly, indicating no recurring advisories or escalating mechanical concerns across the observed period. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a seventeen-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 7,074 miles per year against the 120,250 miles recorded. The DVSA data shows gentle annual use: 114,084 miles in August 2022, rising to 116,899 by August 2023, then 117,240 in August 2024 and 120,250 in August 2025. A single anomaly appears on 26 August 2023 where the tester issued a fail at 116,899 miles with no defects listed, immediately followed by a pass on the same day at identical mileage, suggesting an administrative or procedural error rather than a genuine fault. The record is otherwise sparse and clean, with no consumable wear or structural issues flagged. Given the absence of recorded advisories on brakes, suspension bushes, coil springs, exhaust emissions, or corrosion, the MOT history implies the previous keeper maintained basic statutory standards. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity and underbody rust, as the Mazda 6 of this era is prone to sill and subframe corrosion not always captured in a pass result. Verify the brake discs and calipers for binding or wear unseen by the tester, and confirm the tyres and wiper blades meet legal limits despite no advisories being raised.
