The 2019 Mazda CX-5 is a genuinely reliable choice, passing its MOT on the first attempt 91% of the time—well above the UK average of 80%—with petrol and diesel variants performing almost identically (91.2% and 90.5% respectively). Dangerous defects show up in only 14.1% of vehicles, which is reassuringly low and not a material concern for buyers.
These cars are running at a sensible 31,731 miles median for their age, and the low failure rate of 0.5 per vehicle reflects a fundamentally sound design. The advisory list averages 4.2 items per test, typically minor wear items rather than structural problems—so budget for routine maintenance but not unexpected repairs; focus your pre-purchase inspection on brake condition and suspension wear, the most common advisory themes for this model.
The 2019 Mazda Cx 5 passes its MOT first time more often than most UK vehicles (91% vs ~80% average) — and when it does fail, it's usually something minor and cheap to fix.
These stats describe 10,007 vehicles as a group. The specific vehicle you're looking at could be the one good example or the one outlier. Run its registration to find out.
