2020 Mazda CX-30 2.0L Petrol · WK70 GHD

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a clear shift toward deferred consumable maintenance. While the car passed its most recent test in May 2026 at 49,945 miles, the tester identified multiple advisories regarding tyre condition and brake wear. This transition from a clean sheet in 2025 to a list of wear-related defects suggests that the owner is now only addressing issues as they approach failure rather than performing preventative servicing. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical light-duty use, averaging approximately 8,300 miles per year over the six-year period. The vehicle covered 11,000 miles between May 2023 and May 2024, followed by another 13,700 miles in the two years leading up to the 2026 test. This steady accumulation indicates no unusual stress placed on the drivetrain or suspension components, though the low annual mileage may sometimes contribute to the dry degradation of rubber-based components, as seen in the latest MOT report. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the tyres and braking system. The May 2026 record flagged perishing and cracking on both rear tyres alongside uneven wear at the 2mm limit, which often indicates either alignment issues or age-related rubber failure. The front brake pads were noted as wearing thin, necessitating immediate replacement to ensure stopping performance. Given the recurring nature of tyre failures across 2024 and 2026, the suspension geometry should be checked for signs of excessive play or worn bushes that could be causing premature edge wear.
