2008 Boom Family 6I 1.6L Petrol · HY58 AEW

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean MOT history. The most recent test on 15 June 2023 at 17,020 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to March 2019, suggesting the car has been kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is exceptionally low for an eighteen year old vehicle, averaging roughly 946 miles per year. Between the March 2019 test at 13,157 miles and the June 2023 test at 17,020 miles, the car covered only 3,863 miles over four years. This indicates the vehicle has spent significant periods stationary. There has been no recorded movement or testing since June 2023, leaving a gap of over three years relative to the current date of July 2026. A buyer must prioritise an inspection of components prone to degradation during long-term storage. While the MOT record shows no historical failures for suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake discs, the lack of use often leads to binding calipers and perished rubber seals. The low mileage suggests a risk of tyre flat-spotting or sidewall cracking despite any previous tread depth passes. Attention should be paid to the fuel system and fluid integrity. Long periods of inactivity can cause fuel varnish or moisture ingress in the oil. Given the age of the vehicle, a physical check for structural corrosion on the chassis and sills is essential, as the MOT history does not provide a detailed breakdown of advisory warnings that might have been ignored between tests.
