Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent maintenance record over the last four years. The most recent MOT test on 7 April 2025 at 123,374 miles passed without any defects, following a technical failure just five days prior on 2 April 2025 at 123,244 miles. While the record does not list specific faults for that failure, the immediate rectification suggests a minor component adjustment or bulb replacement that was addressed quickly before the subsequent pass. Since April 2022, the vehicle has maintained a clean pass record with no advisories or failures. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a fifteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,225 miles per annum. Between April 2022 and April 2025, the car covered 22,976 miles, showing a steady usage rate of roughly 7,650 miles per year. This regularity suggests the vehicle has not sat for long periods, which often leads to the degradation of rubber components and brake seals. The lack of large mileage intervals between tests indicates a proactive owner who followed the standard annual testing schedule without deviation. Given the clean nature of the MOT history, a physical inspection should focus on high-wear areas typical of this model and age and mileage. A buyer should examine the condition of the suspension bushes and control arms, as these often perish after the 120,000-mile mark. Attention should also be paid to corrosion on the undercarriage and exhaust system, although the MOT record does not flag structural integrity issues. Testing for binding brake calipers or uneven disc wear is advisable to ensure that the lack of recorded defects reflects the actual state of the braking system.
