AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2016 Mazda has 11 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 25,515 miles. While these issues were addressed, the repeated advisories suggest a need for ongoing vigilance and potential future maintenance.

The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage averaging 6,417 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating normal usage and no odometer fraud.

Things to check

  • Recurring tyre advisories across 14 tests (Mar 2021, Mar 2022, Mar 2023, Mar 2024, Mar 2025) indicate chronic wear.
  • Major brake failure (Offside Front Service brake excessively binding) on 2024-03-11, though fixed.
  • Persistent windscreen minor defects (2026-01-20) suggest a recurring issue.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2025): 5-star safety rating.
  • Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until 2027-01-20, offering peace of mind for the next three years.
  • Consistent, low annual mileage (6,417 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear.
