Our Verdict
Proceed with caution due to recent incre
When inspecting this Mazda 6, prioritize a thorough check of the suspension system. The MOT history shows a recurring pattern of worn suspension arm pins or bushes on both the nearside and offside fronts, as well as a fractured coil spring in 2023. Ensure these have been addressed with quality replacement parts rather than just being noted as advisories.
Negotiate based on the recent MOT findings. The 2026 test identified thin front brake pads and tyres worn close to the legal limit; you should factor the cost of immediate replacement into your offer. Additionally, ask for evidence of any work carried out to address the sub-frame corrosion noted in both 2025 and 2026.
The 2.2L diesel engine typically offers decent fuel economy for long-distance driving, though running costs will be influenced by the high mileage recorded. Tax and insurance groups will vary based on the specific trim level, but diesel models often fall into moderate insurance brackets.
Maintenance costs may be higher than average due to the age and mileage of the vehicle. The recent history of suspension and braking advisories suggests that wear-and-tear components will require regular budget allocation. Estimated annual running costs are likely to be mid-range for a large diesel saloon.
Specifically inspect the rear sub-frame for the level of corrosion mentioned in the 2025 and 2026 MOT records. While described as 'not seriously weakened', corrosion is progressive and should be monitored closely. Check the underside of the vehicle for any signs of significant rust that could lead to future failures.
Furthermore, examine the front suspension components and the condition of the tyres. Given the 2026 advisories regarding worn edges and thin brake pads, a test drive is essential to listen for any knocking or clunking from the suspension bushes. Finally, ensure the registration plate lamp is functional, as this was flagged as inoperative in the most recent test.
This 2015 black Mazda 6 diesel has covered 102,245 miles as of July 2026, which is significantly higher than the model average of 7,753 miles per year. While it has a history of passing tests, the most recent MOT in 2026 shows a notable increase in advisories including suspension bushes, tyre wear, and sub-frame corrosion. The vehicle's mileage is well above the typical annual average for this model type.
Aggregate data for this model shows an average MOT pass rate of 78.7%, with common failure points including headlamps, suspension arms, and parking brake efficiency.
