Got a specific Mazda 626 Glx you're checking out?
The real detail is in the individual vehicle report — MOT history, AI Hunches, mileage timeline, and defect patterns for that specific reg.
This data comes from fewer than 2,900 vehicles in the DVLA database, and the 62.4% first-time MOT pass rate sits well below the UK average of 80%—a clear sign that 1991 Mazda 626 GLX models are ageing significantly and accumulating common faults by the time they reach the test. The good news is that dangerous defects are extremely rare at just 0.4% of vehicles ever recorded, so catastrophic safety failures are not a pattern here.
These cars are running at a median mileage of around 108,600 miles, which is actually quite reasonable for a 33-year-old model and suggests many examples have been carefully maintained or used sparingly. The low average failure rate (0.04 per vehicle) and advisory rate (0.1 per vehicle) indicate that when these Mazdas do fail, it's usually one or two specific issues rather than systemic decay—but the below-average pass rate means those issues are common enough across the cohort to catch most vehicles. If you're considering one, get a pre-purchase inspection to identify what the most frequent faults are for this generation, then budget accordingly for repairs before the next test.
We have 2,846 1991 Mazda 626 Glx vehicles on record, but none have light-vehicle MOT history in our data source.
There are a few reasons this can happen:
- Heavy commercial vehicle — trucks, buses and coaches over 3.5 tonnes are tested under the DVSA annual HGV/PSV regime, which uses a separate database not included in our data source
- Imported vehicles — vehicles registered abroad and recently brought to the UK may have no UK MOT history yet
- MOT-exempt — vehicles manufactured before 1986 qualify under the 40-year rolling exemption; some specialist and agricultural vehicles are also exempt
- Never used on public roads — some vehicles are registered but kept off-road and have never required an MOT
