2013 Mazda CX-5 2.0L Petrol · SC60 TOM

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test on March 4, 2026 at 25,986 miles recorded no defects or advisories. This trend of absolute stability over the last five years suggests that the vehicle has been well-maintained and has not suffered from recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation during the inspection periods. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 2013 registration, averaging only approximately 2,000 miles per year. Between December 2022 and March 2026, the vehicle covered just 5,796 miles, with a notable gap of 2,096 miles between the December 2023 and 2024 tests. While this low usage indicates minimal wear on the drivetrain and engine components, long periods of inactivity can lead to the degradation of perishable fluids, seals, and the integrity of rubber-based suspension components. While the MOT record shows no faults, a physical inspection must address the risks associated with low-mileage storage. A buyer should check for surface corrosion on brake discs and flat spots on tyres which often occur when a car sits for extended periods. The tester should also inspect the suspension bushes and boots for cracking, as these materials age based on time rather than just mileage. Verifying the service history is critical here to ensure that oil and fluid changes were performed annually rather than being neglected during the intervals of low use.
