2018 Mazda 3 2.0L Petrol · LX68 FSZ

The 2025‑09‑25 MOT at 41,489 miles recorded a clean pass with no defects, indicating that the vehicle remains roadworthy and that the maintenance trend is stable; the only recurring issue in earlier tests—tyre damage—has not resurfaced in the most recent examination. Mileage has risen from 15,027 miles in September 2021 to 41,489 miles in September 2025, averaging roughly 5,200 miles per year. This low annual mileage for a 2018 model suggests light use rather than prolonged storage, and the record shows no large gaps or sudden spikes that would point to periods of intensive driving. A prospective buyer should verify the condition of all four tyres, confirming that the previously noted cracking and perishing have been fully remedied and that tread depth is even. Inspection of the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, as well as a visual check of brake discs and calipers for glazing or rust, will ensure no hidden deterioration has developed. Finally, a brief survey for corrosion on structural panels and around the exhaust system will confirm that the vehicle’s integrity aligns with the clean MOT history.
