Mazda auction sheet verification
Mazda's SkyActiv era produced sharp-driving, efficient cars like the Demio, Axela and CX-5 — plus the beloved MX-5 roadster. The auction sheet confirms the generation and the honest condition behind the showroom shine.
Why verify a Mazda?
Mazda's diesels and the MX-5 are enthusiast favourites, where condition and originality carry a real price premium — worth verifying.
Finding your Mazda chassis number
Mazda chassis codes frequently end in FS or P (for example DJ3FS for a Demio/Mazda2). The full number is on the export certificate, under the bonnet, and on the door-jamb plate.
Mazda chassis codes by model
| Model | Chassis code(s) | Generation |
|---|---|---|
| Demio / Mazda2 | DJ3FS · DJ5FS | 2014+ |
| Axela / Mazda3 | BM5FS · BP5P | 2013–2019 · 2019+ |
| CX-5 | KE2FW · KF2P | 2012–2017 · 2017+ |
| Atenza / Mazda6 | GJ2FP | 2012+ |
| CX-3 | DK5FW | 2015+ |
| Roadster / MX-5 | ND5RC | 2015+ |
What to check on a Mazda
- SkyActiv-D diesels (CX-5, Axela): confirm mileage against the sheet — diesels are often high-km.
- MX-5 (ND): check the damage map for door/quarter-panel repairs and soft-top condition notes.
- Confirm the SkyActiv generation code — facelifts share model names.
- Watch for rear-arch corrosion (S/C symbols) on older Demios.
