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 with a clean MOT history leading up to the most recent test. The December 2025 inspection at 38,557 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a successful result in December 2023 at 37,113 miles, indicating that the vehicle has maintained a consistent level of roadworthiness over the last few years. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a 2016 model, averaging approximately 3,856 miles per year. The data shows steady, incremental progress, moving from 36,092 miles in December 2022 to 38,557 miles in December 2025. While the low annual mileage suggests light usage, such patterns can sometimes lead to issues with seals or rubber components due to extended periods of inactivity. The single failure recorded in December 2024 at 37,945 miles appears to be a minor setback as it was rectified immediately to achieve a pass on the same day. Because the MOT record is exceptionally clean, there are no specific mechanical trends to flag, such as recurring suspension bush wear or brake corrosion. However, the low annual mileage means a buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the tyres for flat-spotting and check the battery health. Given the vehicle has covered relatively little ground, it is prudent to inspect the underside for any signs of surface corrosion or fluid leaks that may not have triggered an MOT advisory during these recent, low-mileage tests.
