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 passed its most recent MOT test on 4 September 2025, indicating it is currently roadworthy. However, the trend shows a minor issue with stop lamps in 2023, which has since been resolved, suggesting overall stability in maintenance but with attention needed to lighting systems. The vehicle's mileage of 133,885 miles over approximately 34 years translates to around 3,938 miles per year, which is relatively low. This consistent low mileage could imply either light usage or periods of disuse, potentially reducing wear on consumables and major mechanical components. Notably, there is a gap between the 2022 and 2023 MOT tests, with the vehicle accruing nearly 2,000 miles in a single year, which may warrant closer inspection of tyres, brakes, and suspension for signs of accelerated wear. A buyer should inspect the lighting system thoroughly, particularly the stop lamps, to ensure they function correctly. Given the low mileage, the suspension, brakes, and drivetrain components are likely to be in good condition, but a visual check for any signs of corrosion or wear, especially around the chassis and undercarriage, would be prudent. Additionally, examining the condition of the tyres and checking for any uneven wear or damage is advisable.
