Selling my 2013 Mazda 6 SE-L NAV D as I unfortunately don't have the funds to repair it. The car has been used regularly until recently when it developed a coolant leak. The vehicle is being sold as seen. It starts, but must not be driven away because the radiator/cooling system currently leaks coolant. The vehicle was driven regularly until the radiator leak occurred. It starts and runs, but due to the coolant leak it should be transported by trailer or recovery vehicle. No known engine knocking, smoke, or gearbox issues before the cooling fault developed.
Mechanical Condition:-
The engine was running smoothly before the cooling system fault occurred. Recently, while driving, the dashboard displayed a "High Coolant Temperature" warning and the vehicle entered protection mode. After checking the cooling system, the radiator was empty. From my inspection and the mechanic's opinion, the fault appears to be the radiator leakage.
Repair Cost: Brand new radiator available on eBay from approximately £118. Labour estimated around £150–£200 depending on the garage. New coolant required after replacement.
The engine oil was changed at the beginning of this year. Only around 2,000 miles have been driven since the oil service, so there is still approximately 3,000–5,000 miles remaining before the next oil change depending on your servicing schedule. Tyres are in roadworthy condition.
The dashboard currently shows a low tyre pressure warning light. This appeared after I had a punctured tyre repaired. I was advised that the tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS) simply needs to be reset.
The airbag warning light is also illuminated. This warning was already present when I purchased the vehicle and has remained the same during my ownership.
Bodywork:-
The car is in decent condition for its age with a few cosmetic issues. The driver's side wing mirror cover is missing/broken. Replacement covers are available on eBay for around £30.
The left front passenger door has a dent. A replacement used door can be purchased for approximately £100, or the existing door can be repaired by a body shop.
The right rear tail light red lens is cracked/broken. Replacement lights are commonly available for around £30–£50.
The air conditioning needs re-gassing. A standard A/C gas refill normally costs around £20–£40, depending on the garage and type of refrigerant used.
The interior is in good, clean condition for its age. Everything inside has been looked after and remains comfortable.
Running Costs:-
✅ ULEZ Compliant (Euro 6)
✅ £20 Annual Road Tax
✅ Lower insurance group compared with many similar vehicles
✅ Excellent fuel economy from the 2.2 Skyactiv-D diesel engine.
This would be an excellent purchase for a mechanic, someone who repairs cars, a DIY enthusiast, someone looking for a cheap Mazda project, or a reseller. Most replacement parts are inexpensive and widely available on eBay and other online suppliers.
