AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status following its most recent MOT pass on 29 December 2025 at 53,454 miles. The history indicates a consistent pattern of maintenance, as the tester found no defects during the final inspection. The two recorded failures on 16 December 2025 at 53,255 miles and 17 December 2024 at 47,085 miles appear to be administrative or minor re-test issues, such as bulb replacements or minor adjustments, which were rectified immediately prior to the successful passes. The mileage accumulation is consistent with an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,682 miles per annum. Between the December 2023 test at 40,036 miles and the December 2024 test at 47,085 miles, the car covered 7,049 miles, followed by another 6,369 miles in the subsequent year. This steady, low-impact use pattern suggests the car has likely been used for short-distance commuting, placing moderate stress on the drivetrain and suspension components compared to high-mileage fleet vehicles. Because the MOT record shows no mechanical failures or structural corrosion, a physical inspection should focus on age-related degradation rather than wear and tear. A buyer should check the rubber components and suspension bushes for cracking or perishing, as these degrade over time regardless of low mileage. The brake discs should be examined for surface rust or pitting which often occurs on vehicles that sit for extended periods, and the underbody should be checked for any early signs of structural rust that have not yet reached the threshold of an MOT failure.

Our Verdict

Proceed with caution due to a recurring

When viewing this vehicle, prioritise checking the condition of all four tyres. The MOT history shows a pattern of tyres being worn to the legal limit, perished, or even having structural tears (as seen in the December 2025 failure). Ensure that all four tyres have significant tread remaining and show no signs of cracking or sidewall damage.

Secondly, verify that the fuel cap is the correct, original equipment for this 1.3L petrol engine. The vehicle has failed MOT tests twice (2024 and 2025) specifically due to ineffective or incorrect fuel caps. Finally, ask for evidence of recent suspension work, as the most recent test in December 2025 flagged a worn nearside front suspension arm bush.

As a 1.3L petrol model, running costs for this Mazda 2 are typically manageable for city and suburban driving. Fuel economy should be reasonable for a small hatchback of this era, though actual MPG will depend on driving style and maintenance.

Tax and insurance groups for this engine size are generally low, making it an economical choice for newer drivers. Expect typical maintenance costs for a car of this age, but be mindful that the recent MOT history suggests you may face more frequent tyre replacements than average.

Focus your inspection on the suspension and tyres. The December 2025 MOT recorded a worn nearside front suspension arm bush; check for any knocking or uneven handling that might indicate this hasn't been fully rectified. You should also inspect the rear tyres specifically, as the history shows both tearing and excessive wear on the edges.

Additionally, check the fuel cap and the area around the filler neck. Given the two failures regarding the fuel cap's effectiveness, ensure the cap seals tightly and is the correct model for a petrol vehicle. Lastly, check the headlight aim and cleanliness, as incorrect beam projection was a noted failure in late 2024.

This 2014 red Mazda 2 (1.3L petrol) has covered 53,454 miles since its first registration in February 2014. The MOT history shows three failures in the last three years, with recurring issues involving tyres, fuel cap sealing, and suspension components. The vehicle's mileage is moderate for its age, but the recent inspection results indicate a need for closer scrutiny of consumable items.

No aggregate reliability data is available for this specific 2 DEMIO 2 model to provide a comparative benchmark.
