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 presents a stable maintenance profile based on the available MOT history. The most recent test on 14 February 2024 at 87,871 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, suggesting the car was in a good state of repair at that time. While the record shows intermittent issues with consumables, the lack of failures or recurring structural defects indicates a consistent level of upkeep. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 6,759 miles per year. A notable increase in usage occurred between February 2022 and March 2023, where the mileage rose from 72,200 to 82,314 miles. Following this period, the rate of use slowed slightly, with the vehicle covering roughly 5,557 miles between March 2023 and February 2024. This steady progression suggests regular, predictable use rather than long periods of inactivity which can often lead to seized components or perished rubber seals. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system and tyre wear patterns. The August 2019 test flagged both nearside and offside rear brake discs as worn, pitted, or scored. Although this was not a failure, it indicates the rear braking components have been subject to surface degradation. The March 2023 test identified two front tyres worn close to the legal limit and worn on the edges, which points to potential alignment issues or uneven tyre wear. I recommend checking the suspension geometry and inspecting the condition of the rear brake discs and pads to ensure any previous pitting has been addressed through replacement.
