Mazda 6 TS2 Petrol (147) - Actions having bought car - wizardwheezer

Just bought a 55 reg 94000 mile vehicle with all MOTs but a light history. Only intend keeping it for a few months until my new car is delivered. Apart from an oil and filter change, what should i get the garage to check or do?

I'm not certain but I think the petrol engines are chain-cam, but do double-check this just in case.

If it is a belt-cam engine and there is no evidence of a cambelt change in the car's history, it's probably worth doing a cambelt service

If it is a chain-cam engine I'd just get your garage to give it a basic oil / filter service and fluids check (maybe change spark plugs & airfilter too) and check the brakes for wear.
