Against every Mazda 3 first used in 2014 and tested in Great Britain in the 2025 test year (8,176 first-attempt tests) — the most recent full year available.
| Measure | This car | Typical 2014 3 | What it means |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pass rate, first attempts | 6 of 10 (60%) | 70.3% in 2025 | Lower than the group figure |

| Mileage at its latest test (13 Aug 2026) | 155,982 miles | 79,085 (middle half 59,081–100,246) | Above the middle half; not an outlier |
| Clean passes (no advisories) | 2 of 10 | 34.0% of first tests | Lower than the group figure |
"Typical" is every Mazda 3 first used in 2014, any fuel or use — not adjusted for mileage. This car's figures are from its own record only. A first attempt is any test not within 10 days after a failed test of this car. A first attempt whose faults were all put right during the test counts as fixed during the test (PRS), not as a fail, as in DVSA's figures.
Bars: share of 2014 3 first tests that did not pass first time in 2025 carrying each item, in DVSA's wording. Right-hand note: what this car's own record shows in that area.
This car: 155,982 miles at its latest test — above the middle half.

Full provenance report — no Data Guarantee — £5.99. Data provided by Experian.
This is the public record for one vehicle, drawn from two free government sources: DVLA for the registration — make, year, colour, fuel, emissions, tax and MOT status — and DVSA for every MOT result and mileage reading since 2005. Nothing here costs anything, and nothing here identifies the keeper.
What it cannot tell you is the commercial history: outstanding finance, insurance write-offs and stolen markers. Those come from Experian and are not public. They are the difference between a car you can drive and a car you can lose — see SortedCars Reports, or read the longer guide on the free car check.
