2013 Mazda CX-5 2.2L Diesel · WP13 AEE

The 2013 Mazda CX-5 demonstrates stable roadworthiness, with no defects recorded in its last four MOT tests, including the most recent 2025-08-16 inspection at 82,254 miles. All prior tests from 2022 to 2024 also passed without issues, indicating consistent maintenance and no emerging mechanical concerns. The absence of advisories or failures suggests the vehicle has been well-maintained, with no recurring faults in critical systems like brakes, suspension, or emissions. Mileage progression shows a steady annual average of 6,327 miles, aligning with typical usage for a 13-year-old vehicle. The MOT records span a five-year period with regular testing intervals, averaging 12–14 months between assessments. No significant gaps in coverage or rapid mileage spikes are evident, which reduces concerns about prolonged inactivity or excessive wear on consumables. The clean history implies the previous owner prioritized routine checks, though it does not confirm proactive servicing beyond legal requirements. A buyer should conduct a detailed inspection of the suspension components, including bushes and coil springs, as these often degrade over time without MOT detection. The underbody should be checked for corrosion, particularly in areas prone to road salt exposure. While the MOT records show no brake-related issues, a physical check of brake discs and calipers is advisable to confirm there is no hidden wear. Exhaust emissions and structural integrity also warrant scrutiny, as these are not fully assessed during standard MOT tests.
