AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2012 Mazda has 12 MOT tests on record with a 100% pass rate and 8,254 miles. The very low mileage for its age is a significant concern.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage averaging 2,158 miles/year, with a notable drop from 19,163 miles in Feb 2020 to 20,089 miles in Feb 2021, suggesting a possible odometer issue.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 2,158 miles/year (Feb 2026) — a major red flag for potential odometer fraud.
- Very low mileage for a 2012 car (30,510 miles) suggests limited use or potential hidden issues.
- The timing chain tension
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed — clean at last test
- Perfect MOT pass record with no failures across 8 tests since 2015.
- No dangerous defects recorded in the MOT history, indicating good roadworthiness.
- Mazda's 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating (2025) provides excellent peace of mind for safety.
