Expert AI · Mechanic's Insight
The vehicle presents a stable and improving maintenance trend, culminating in a clean pass on 20 February 2026 at 158,420 miles with zero defects recorded. This marks five consecutive MOT passes without any advisories or failures, indicating consistent mechanical upkeep in recent years. The mileage accumulation of roughly 17,602 miles per year is notably high for a luxury marque of this age. Between the February 2025 test at 146,972 miles and the February 2026 test at 158,420 miles, the vehicle covered 11,448 miles in twelve months, confirming sustained heavy use rather than long periods of inactivity. The annual increments have remained relatively steady across the recorded history, with no abrupt spikes or suspicious gaps that would suggest odometer tampering or extended lay-ups. Despite the clean MOT record, the high annual mileage places accelerated wear on consumable and structural components not always visible during a standard MOT. A buyer should inspect the condition of the front and rear brake discs and pads, as sustained high-mileage driving accelerates wear beyond typical service intervals. The suspension bushes, coil springs, and dampers deserve close scrutiny, particularly for play or corrosion that may not yet constitute a failure but signals approaching replacement. Tyre condition and uneven wear patterns should be checked, given the likelihood of frequent long-distance driving. The exhaust system, including the catalytic converter and associated sensors, warrants attention at this mileage, as emission control components degrade with sustained use. Underbody inspection for structural corrosion or oil leaks from the engine and gearbox is advisable, given the vehicle's age and cumulative stress. While the MOT history reflects diligent maintenance, the high-mileage profile means proactive inspection of these components remains essential before purchase.
