Expert AI · Mechanic's Insight
The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a pass on June 18, 2026, but the recent inspection history reveals a sharp decline in maintenance standards. While the most recent test was successful, the total failure just ten days prior at 112,758 miles highlighted multiple critical mechanical failures and safety defects. This sudden shift from a clean record in 2025 to a list of failures suggests reactive rather than proactive maintenance, where components are only addressed once they reach a point of failure. The recorded mileage of 112,779 miles over 11 years represents an average of approximately 10,250 miles per year, which aligns with typical UK driving averages for a premium SUV. The data shows a consistent pattern of use, with roughly 11,700 miles covered between May 2024 and April 2025, and another 11,700 miles in the following year. However, the rapid accumulation of mileage combined with the recent failures in June 2026 indicates that the vehicle is now entering a phase where component wear is more accelerated. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension and drivetrain components. The June 2026 failure flagged excessively worn bushes on both front lower suspension arms and the anti-roll bar linkage, alongside split CV boots on the front drive shafts. These issues indicate that the rubber components and joints in the front end are nearing the end of their service life. Furthermore, the history of thin brake pads in 2024 and illegal tyre tread depths in 2026 suggests that basic consumable items have been neglected until they became hazardous, necessitating a comprehensive check of the present condition of all brakes and tyres.
