2018 Mazda CX-5 2.2L Diesel · PL67 KGY

The 2018 Mazda CX-5 holds a fully roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trajectory, confirmed by the 18 February 2026 DVSA test at 62,789 miles which passed with no defects recorded. All five annual examinations from February 2022 to February 2026 delivered straight passes. The vehicle exhibits no worsening trend and zero recurring mechanical faults. Recorded mileage tracks below average for an eight-year-old SUV. The odometer read 44,283 miles on 1 February 2022 and climbed to 62,789 miles by 18 February 2026, an interval average of 4,626 miles per year against the 7,849 miles per annum norm. Yearly increments measured 6,657, 3,542, 3,571 and 4,878 miles respectively across the tests dated 2023, 2024, 2025 and 2026. Light use and punctual testing suggest the prior keeper stored the car often yet kept statutory duties current. Prospective buyers should still inspect consumable and structural items in person despite the clean advisory sheet. DVSA testers flagged no worn suspension bushes, fractured coil springs, corroded brake discs, binding calipers or exhaust emissions failures throughout the record. Standing periods inherent to low mileage can promote tyre sidewall cracking and subframe corrosion unseen on a standard test. The absent defect history implies disciplined ownership that avoided deferred repairs. We advise a physical check of structural integrity at chassis mounting points and a road trial to detect any latent suspension knock or binding rear brakes. Mechanical risk stays low for this model year given the evidence.
