This 2012 Mazda has 11 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 9,493 miles. The extremely low mileage for its age, combined with a dangerous defect and a 2021 service gap, presents significant unquantifiable risks.

The vehicle shows extremely low mileage of 9,493 miles over 14 years, with suspiciously low usage before Jan 2018 (19 mi/yr equivalent), raising serious odometer integrity concerns.
