Expert AI · Mechanic's Insight
The vehicle achieved a PASS on the most recent MOT dated 30 January 2026 at 31 747 miles, with only a minor advisory on the outer front tyres showing slight cracking or perishing. The preceding test in January 2025 recorded no defects, indicating the issues identified in 2024 and 2022 have been remedied. Overall the maintenance trend is improving, moving from the failures of April 2024 (wiper and stop‑lamp) and April 2022 (brake‑lever travel and tyre ply exposure) to a clean, compliant status today. Mileage accumulation has been modest for a 2017 model, rising from 13 077 miles in February 2021 to 31 747 miles in January 2026 – an average increase of roughly 3 500 miles per year. The data shows a steady, low‑rate progression without sudden jumps, suggesting light usage or extended periods of storage. The only notable gap is the six‑month COVID‑19 extension granted in June 2020, after which the next test did not occur until February 2021, but this does not affect the overall mileage trend. A prospective buyer should inspect the front tyres closely for cracking, uneven wear or exposed cords, as these have been flagged on two separate tests. The brake lever’s reserve travel should be verified to ensure the previously reported insufficient travel has been fully corrected. The wiper blade condition and stop‑lamp operation, which failed in 2024, merit a functional check. Additionally, examine suspension bushes and coil springs for corrosion or wear, given the vehicle’s age and the low‑mileage storage pattern that can promote rust in infrequently used components.
