2019 Mazda 2 1.5L Petrol · NA69 FPL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection in September 2025 with 26,140 miles and no recorded defects. The maintenance trend shows signs of improvement following a significant failure in late 2024. While the 2024 test revealed multiple safety concerns, the subsequent clean record indicates that the owner addressed the necessary repairs to bring the car back to standard. The mileage profile is low for a seven-year-old car, averaging approximately 3,734 miles per year. Between October 2023 and October 2024, the vehicle covered 5,157 miles, suggesting a consistent pattern of short-distance use or occasional periods of storage rather than heavy commuting. This low mileage typically implies less mechanical wear on the engine and drivetrain components, though long-term standing between tests can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components like suspension bushes and tyre compounds, as well as surface corrosion on brake discs. A buyer should inspect the front suspension geometry specifically, as the October 2024 failure flagged a nearside front tyre with a structural tear and an offside front tyre with edge wear. These issues often stem from incorrect wheel alignment or worn suspension bushings rather than simple mileage wear. The record also noted front brake pads below the 1.5mm legal limit during that same test; while these were likely replaced, a buyer should verify the remaining life of the pads and ensure the discs are not scored or developed heavy ridges.
