From my perspective... better go and buy one OBD2 bluetooth reader which cost not more than USD20 and download the reader software to your android phone.

Read if there's any major error codes on parts before you had to replace it o buying it.

Some owners did dismantle the CEL/Check engine light bulb if there's any major parts that lights up the CEL lights before selling it off.

Some owners also will only starts to sell off their vehicles when the car starts to have some major problem which they doesn't want to repair so therefore selling off.

Better to know more of the condition before jumping the wagon.

Basically i find that Mazda MPVs are very comfortable and good to use.
