MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

21 MOT tests are recorded for this 2006 Mazda 3 (YF55 VLN) between January 2009 and January 2026.

The record contains 18 passes and 3 failures.

The most recent test on 17 January 2026 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 3 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (12 issues), Brakes (11 issues), Suspension (9 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (4 issues), Lighting (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 52 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.

Recorded failure items include: “Offside Rear Tyre has a cut in excess of the requirements deep enough to reach the ply or cords (5.2.3 (d) (i))”; “Offside Front Suspension arm ball joint excessively worn (5.3.4 (a) (i))”; “Nearside Front Suspension arm ball joint excessively worn (5.3.4 (a) (i))”.
