Expert AI · Mechanic's Insight
The vehicle presents a current roadworthy status following the February 2026 MOT pass at 106,750 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable, with the most recent test showing a clean sheet and no advisories carried forward. Prior to this, the November 2025 failure at 106,720 miles listed no defects, indicating an administrative or presentation issue rather than a mechanical fault. Mileage sits at 106,750 against an 18-year life, averaging roughly 5,931 miles per year, which is low for the age. The record shows sparse annual movement: 95,846 miles in November 2023, 95,847 same day on re-test, 99,665 by November 2024, then 106,720 in November 2025 and 106,750 in February 2026. The 6,000-mile spread across 2024 to 2025 and only 30 miles added by the 2026 test suggest light use with possible long standing periods. No rapid accumulation or concerning gaps appear in the data. The history flags no recurring suspension, brake, exhaust, or corrosion problems across any test. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of structural integrity and underbody condition given the car's age and low use, as MOT passes with zero advisories do not capture early bush wear or surface rust. Verify the November 2025 failure cause despite the no-defect listing, and confirm brake discs, coil springs, and tyre sidewall condition before purchase.
