Expert AI · Mechanic's Insight
This vehicle presents a significant risk because it has not had a recorded MOT test since August 2015. With today's date being June 2026, the car has been off the road or untested for over ten years. The mileage is very low for an 18-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 4,180 miles per year. However, the recorded mileage has remained frozen at 75,238 miles since 2015. This strongly suggests the car has been standing idle for over a decade rather than being used lightly. The mechanical trend was worsening leading up to its last test. The final entries show a pattern of corrosion and rubber degradation, specifically noting heavily corroded inner brake disc faces, a broken exhaust mounting, and deteriorating rubber bushes in the anti-roll bar and lower suspension arms. Long-term dormancy typically leads to severe issues that may not be immediately visible. You should expect perished tyres, seized brake calipers, degraded engine seals, and potential fuel system contamination. The previous mention of an oil leak in 2013 may have worsened if seals have dried out during years of inactivity.
