2013 Mazda 6 2.2L Diesel · LR63 AEF

The 2013 Mazda 6 presents a roadworthy status based on the latest DVSA test on 25 January 2024 at 120,285 miles, where it passed with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable, showing no recurring advisories or mechanical faults across the history. A curious anomaly appears on 21 February 2023: the tester issued a failure at 109,282 miles yet recorded no defects, followed by a pass later that same day at 109,283 miles. That pattern indicates a minor administrative or non-mechanical rectification rather than a worsening condition. Mileage sits at 120,285 against a 13-year lifespan, equating to roughly 9,250 miles annually which is typical for the age. The odometer advanced from 89,556 at the 9 November 2020 test to 97,097 on 14 October 2021, then to 109,283 by 21 February 2023, and finally 120,285 by January 2024. The gaps are modest, with a slightly extended 16-month interval between the 2021 and 2023 examinations. The sparse but clean record suggests previous keepers addressed consumables such as tyres and wiper blades before each test. No suspension bushes, brake discs, binding calipers, or structural corrosion appear in the official advisories, yet a buyer must verify those items in person. At this age and mileage, inspect coil springs for fractures and check subframe integrity for rust. The absence of flagged exhaust emissions issues does not preclude worn dampers or tired bushings. A pre-purchase inspection should confirm brake caliper operation and measure remaining tyre tread beyond the legal minimum.
