2013 Mazda CX-5 2.2L Diesel · LL62 VFP

This Mazda CX-5 demonstrates a remarkably consistent record of roadworthiness, characterised by a complete absence of defects or advisories across its most recent four annual inspections. The most recent clean pass on 19 April 2025 confirms a stable mechanical trajectory, suggesting that the vehicle has maintained its structural and functional integrity without the chronic wear-and-tear issues typically seen in vehicles of this vintage. With a recorded mileage of 120,041 miles, the vehicle has averaged approximately 9,234 miles per year, which aligns with typical UK usage patterns for a thirteen-year-old crossover. This steady accumulation suggests the vehicle has been used regularly rather than suffering from the degradation associated with long-term stagnation or the extreme stress of high-intensity commercial use. Mechanically, this mileage indicates that while the drivetrain and chassis have seen significant use, the wear has been distributed evenly over time. Because the DVSA history is devoid of any flagged defects or advisories, there are no specific recurring failures to monitor. However, given the 120,000-mile threshold, a test drive should be used to verify the continued health of the suspension and steering systems. Listen for any knocks or clunks when traversing uneven surfaces and check for any steering pull or vibration at motorway speeds to ensure the vehicle continues to perform to the standard of its clean testing history. Attention should also be paid to the braking performance and drivetrain smoothness. Ensure there is no judder through the brake pedal during deceleration and that the gear transitions remain fluid. While the MOT record indicates no issues with emissions or structural corrosion, a visual check of the underbody for any fresh surface rust or oil misting around the engine bay will provide a complete picture of the vehicle's current mechanical state.
