Expert AI · Mechanic's Insight
The maintenance trend for this vehicle is highly stable, with the most recent test on 23 June 2025 yielding a pass at 107,578 miles. The record over the last five years is exceptionally clean, showing a continuous run of passes with only a single minor advisory logged across all recent tests. This indicates consistent mechanical care rather than neglected upkeep. Mileage accumulation aligns with typical usage for a sixteen-year-old performance saloon, averaging roughly 6,700 miles annually. The data between January 2021 and January 2022 shows a 2,700-mile gap, while the intervals from 2022 onward reflect approximately 2,500 miles per year, suggesting the car has transitioned to lighter seasonal use in recent years. There are no signs of rapid mileage accumulation or unexplained gaps that might indicate periods of standing or odometer discrepancies. Despite the clean MOT history, the sole advisory from the June 2025 test warrants immediate attention. The tester flagged the nearside rear tyre as worn close to the legal limit and worn on the edge, which points to a potential rear suspension alignment issue or aggressive driving inputs rather than standard centre-tread wear. A buyer must inspect this tyre closely, as it will likely require immediate replacement if not already addressed, and the inner edges of the remaining rear tyres should be checked for the same scrubbing pattern. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the rear axle and suspension components to identify any worn bushes or compromised geometry causing the edge wear. Brake discs and calipers must be evaluated thoroughly, as the low annual mileage suggests the car may endure short trips that promote corrosion and binding calipers. The underbody and structural sills require careful checks for surface corrosion, as intermittent use often accelerates undercarriage deterioration even on well-maintained examples.
