2015 LML Star 0.1L Petrol · EU15 BXL

The vehicle’s most recent MOT test on 2023-04-20 confirms it remains roadworthy, with no defects recorded at 4,417 miles. This marks a stable maintenance trend over the past three tests, as all subsequent passes (2021, 2020, and 2019) also logged zero issues. The absence of advisories or recurring faults suggests the vehicle has been kept in a basic state of repair, though the lack of defects does not preclude hidden wear—particularly in areas not routinely inspected, such as underbody corrosion or internal suspension degradation. The 2019 retest on 2019-05-16 failed without recorded defects, which is unusual and may indicate a minor oversight in documentation rather than a mechanical failure. The recorded mileage of 4,417 miles over nearly 11 years—roughly 402 miles annually—is exceptionally low for a vehicle of this age. This pattern suggests prolonged periods of inactivity, which could accelerate certain forms of deterioration, such as tyre degradation, suspension rubber perishing, or battery corrosion. Notably, the mileage jumped from 667 miles in May 2019 to 3,774 miles by November 2020, a spike that could imply a single owner’s extended storage followed by renewed use. Such fluctuations make it difficult to gauge whether critical components like brakes or drivetrain elements have been properly serviced or simply overlooked. Given the sparse MOT history, a buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of suspension components, particularly the bushes and coil springs, which may have degraded during periods of inactivity. The brakes, while not flagged, should be checked for uneven wear or binding calipers, especially if the vehicle was stored with tyres fitted. Underbody corrosion is another concern, particularly around wheel arches, sills, and the exhaust system, as prolonged standing can accelerate rust formation. Finally, the battery and electrical connections warrant attention, as low mileage often correlates with sulphation or terminal corrosion. While the MOT record shows no red flags, these areas are where silent damage typically accumulates.
