2012 Mazda 2 1.3L Petrol · SY62 WKG

The vehicle presents in a stable roadworthiness condition, showing a consistent maintenance trend. The most recent inspection conducted in February 2026 at 79,898 miles passed with no recorded defects, indicating that the car currently meets all safety and environmental standards. While a failure was noted in January 2025 at 74,144 miles, the immediate pass on the same day suggests the owner was proactive in rectifying identified faults quickly. The mileage profile is notably low for a 14-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,700 miles per year. Between January 2023 and January 2024, the car covered 2,513 miles, showing a very consistent pattern of light use. The interval of 5,729 miles recorded between January 2024 and January 2025 maintains this steady trajectory. Such low mileage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, though it can increase the likelihood of age-related degradation in rubber components and fluid seals. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components susceptible to age rather than high-mileage wear. Given the clean MOT history, the inspector should check for structural corrosion on the sills and rear wheel arches, which are common failure points for Mazdas of this era. Examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking, as low-use vehicles often suffer from rubber perishment. The brakes should also be checked for pitting or seizing to ensure that the low usage has not allowed the calipers to bond during periods of inactivity.
