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

This 2008 Mazda has 16 MOT tests on record with a 94% pass rate and 11,653 miles. The very low annual usage also warrants careful investigation.

The vehicle shows very low annual usage, averaging only 2,932 miles per year, with a significant drop in usage from 2018 onwards (e.g., +2,010 miles between Jul 2018 and Mar 2019).

Things to check

  • Very low annual mileage (2,932 mi/yr) for an 18-year-old vehicle is highly unusual and requires verification.
  • The 2011-03-25 MOT shows only 11,653 miles in 3 years, which is extremely low and suspicious.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2026-07-12, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No major structural failures or dangerous defects recorded in its MOT history.
  • Consistent, albeit low, mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or spikes.
  • No recurring failures on critical safety systems like brakes or steering.
