2008 Jeep Compass Limited CRD 2.0L Diesel · LNZ 3245

The 2025‑04‑08 MOT at 132,788 miles recorded a pass with no defects, confirming that the vehicle remains roadworthy as of the latest test. The alternating pass/fail pattern from 2023 through 2025 shows no progressive deterioration; each inspection has yielded the same clean result, indicating a stable maintenance trend. The recorded mileage has risen from 120,143 miles in April 2023 to 132,788 miles in April 2025, an average annual increase of roughly 4,200 miles, which aligns with the vehicle’s age of about 18 years and the typical 7,377 miles per year for its class. No significant gaps appear between the 2023, 2024 and 2025 entries, suggesting consistent usage rather than long periods of standing. A buyer should therefore focus on the suspension system, examining rear and front bushes, coil springs and shock absorbers for wear or binding, and verify that the rear brake calipers move freely and that the brake discs show even wear without scoring. The MOT history, while defect‑free, hints at recurring mechanical checks that merit close visual and functional inspection. Finally, inspect the chassis for structural rust, especially around the wheel arches and underbody, and assess the exhaust system for corrosion or leaks. Verify tyre tread depth, wiper blade condition and fluid levels, as these consumables often reveal neglect despite the clean MOT records.
