AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

This vehicle presents an exceptionally stable roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 12 January 2026 at 80,743 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent five year trend of clean passes without any recorded advisories or failures, suggesting a high standard of preventative maintenance. The mileage accumulation is steady and typical for a ten year old vehicle. Between 11 January 2022 at 61,199 miles and 12 January 2026 at 80,743 miles, the car covered 19,544 miles. This averages to roughly 4,886 miles per year over the last four years, indicating regular use without excessive wear or prolonged periods of standing that could lead to perished seals or seized calipers. The absence of any flagged issues regarding suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake disc corrosion over half a decade is rare for this model. While the record is clean, a buyer should still physically inspect the brake pads and tyre tread depths, as these consumables are not always flagged as defects until they reach the legal limit. Check for any signs of oil leaks around the engine bay and inspect the underside for surface corrosion. Given the lack of historical faults, the primary focus should be on verifying that the service intervals have been met in the workshop logs to match the clean MOT record.
