The vehicle presents a stable and highly positive maintenance profile. The most recent MOT test on 13 January 2026 at 55,049 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back several years, suggesting the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard. The single failure recorded on 26 November 2022 at 43,079 miles appears to have been a minor issue, as the car passed its subsequent test just one week later on 2 December 2022 at 43,116 miles. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a 2014 model, averaging approximately 4,587 miles per year. The data shows very gradual increases, such as the 3,672 miles covered between the January 2024 and January 2025 tests, and the 3,889 miles between January 2025 and January 2026. While the low mileage indicates light usage, the long intervals between tests and the low annual distance suggest the vehicle may spend significant time stationary. This pattern can sometimes lead to issues with rubber components or fluid degradation, though the MOT records do not currently indicate any such failures. Given the lack of recorded advisories for suspension bushes, brake wear, or corrosion, the mechanical history is exceptionally clean. However, a buyer should still perform a physical inspection of the underside to check for surface rust or seized components, which can occur on low-use vehicles. I recommend checking the condition of the tyres and battery, as infrequent driving often impacts these consumables. The absence of any reported issues with exhaust emissions or braking systems in the recent history provides confidence in the vehicle's current mechanical state.
