2013 Mazda 3 2.2L Diesel · OY63 EWJ

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate issued on 13 September 2025 at 91,784 miles with no recorded defects, indicating a stable and improving maintenance trend. The absence of advisories in the most recent test suggests that previous mechanical concerns have been addressed, moving the car into a clean state of roadworthiness. This record reflects a pattern of responsible rectification following the minor component failures noted in the preceding two years. Total mileage accumulation remains consistent with the age of the vehicle, averaging approximately 7,060 miles per annum over its thirteen-year lifespan. The usage rate accelerated slightly between September 2024 and September 2025, when the car covered 13,186 miles compared to the 10,580 miles recorded in the prior twelve-month period. This increased activity suggests the vehicle has been in regular, active service rather than experiencing prolonged periods of inactivity, which often leads to seized components or perished rubber seals. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the suspension and wheel integrity, given the history of slight play in the nearside rear anti-roll bar ball joint and the buckled inner rims noted in 2023. While these items passed the most recent test, verify that the wheels remain true and free of vibration at motorway speeds. Check the headlamp lenses for any lingering cloudiness or surface degradation, as these were flagged as defective in 2024. Finally, examine the inner edges of the front tyres to ensure the alignment remains within specification, preventing a recurrence of the uneven wear patterns identified in the 2023 inspection.
