2014 Mazda 2 1.3L Petrol · KS64 OFP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, passing its most recent MOT in February 2026 at 95,440 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable as the most recent failure involved only a minor component related to the windscreen washer system. While the 2025 test revealed multiple critical failures regarding wheels and tyres, the subsequent pass indicates the previous owner was proactive in addressing safety-critical defects before the certificate expired. At 95,440 miles over twelve years, the mileage profile is consistent with average UK usage for a hatchback, averaging approximately 8,000 miles per annum. The record shows a consistent annual testing interval, with roughly 9,000 miles driven between the February 2024 and February 2025 tests, and another 9,000 miles leading up to the most recent inspection. This regular use suggests the vehicle has not been subjected to long periods of stationary, which often leads to rubber degradation and seized components in older Mazdas. A buyer should specifically inspect the front-end assembly and wheel hardware. The 2025 failure for a distorted nearside front road wheel and a structurally failed tyre with a bulge and exposed cords suggests a history of impact damage or severe kerbing. You must verify the wheel for any hairline cracks or bends and ensure the suspension geometry has not been knocked out of alignment. Additionally, given the 2024 advisory regarding a cut sidewall, a thorough check of the remaining tyre sidewalls is necessary to ensure no further structural damage is present.
