Mechanical Assessment
The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a clean pass in October 2025 at 66,714 miles. The maintenance trend shows a reactive pattern, evidenced by an immediate failure just one mile prior due to both fractured nearside and offside rear coil springs. While the most recent test indicates no outstanding defects, the sudden need to replace both rear springs suggests that the previous owner only addressed suspension components once a failure occurred rather than performing preventative maintenance. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical light-urban usage, averaging approximately 8,300 miles per year. The record shows steady progression, with 13,079 miles covered between November 2022 and November 2023, and another 8,217 miles recorded between November 2023 and October 2025. This regular accumulation suggests the vehicle has not sat for long periods, which generally helps prevent the premature degradation of rubber-based components and seals, despite the relatively low annual mileage. A buyer should conduct a close inspection of the suspension and braking systems given the documented history of wear in these areas. The 2022 and 2023 tests flagged recurring issues with worn brake discs and tyres reaching the legal limit on inner edges, which may indicate alignment issues or aggressive driving habits. Because the rear coil springs failed simultaneously in 2025, a physical check of the remaining suspension springs and bushings for corrosion or stress fractures is necessary to ensure the structural integrity of the assembly is not nearing a similar failure point.
