Our Verdict

Proceed with extreme caution. While the mileage is impressively low for a 2001 model, the history of structural corrosion and recurring electrical faults makes this a high-risk purchase.

The primary concern with this vehicle is structural integrity. The MOT history shows a pattern of chassis and suspension mounting corrosion (notably in 2019 and 2025). You must verify exactly what welding work was carried out to rectify the 'excessive corrosion' reported in October 2025. Ask for receipts from a professional body shop; if the work was a 'patch job' to simply pass the MOT, the car's long-term viability is questionable.

Additionally, check the service history for evidence of oil leak repairs, as this was noted as an advisory in the most recent test. Given the age and the recurring SRS and MIL warning lamp failures seen in 2019 and 2025, ensure all dashboard warning lights are currently off and that the faults were actually repaired rather than just reset.
