On the safety side, the most frequently flagged dangerous fault is brake disc in such a condition that it is seriously weakened.

If you're viewing a Mazda CX-5 Homura MHEV with an expired or recently passed MOT, ask the seller whether any dangerous faults were found and fixed during the last test.

Before committing to a purchase, we recommend running a full vehicle history check on the specific car. This will reveal any outstanding finance, stolen markers, write-off history and mileage discrepancies that the seller may not disclose — and that the MOT data alone can't tell you.
