Mechanical Assessment
This vehicle is in a stable and highly roadworthy condition based on its MOT history. The most recent test on 4 February 2026 at 45,515 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to early 2023, suggesting a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard or has experienced very little mechanical stress. The mileage is exceptionally low for a 2012 model, averaging roughly 3,251 miles per year. The data shows a steady but minimal increase in distance, moving from 42,807 miles in January 2023 to 45,515 miles by February 2026. This indicates the car has likely spent long periods stationary or served as a secondary vehicle. While the lack of recorded defects is positive, very low usage can sometimes mask issues related to inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that degrade regardless of mileage. Rubber elements such as suspension bushes, tyre sidewalls, and engine mounts can perish over fourteen years even if the car is rarely driven. Check for signs of perished rubber or flat spots on the tyres. Inspect the braking system for signs of seizure or corrosion. Low-mileage cars are prone to binding calipers or pitted brake discs due to lack of regular heat cycles and movement. Verify that the fluids are clean and that there are no leaks from seals that may have dried out during periods of standing.
