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 currently holds a stable roadworthiness status with an improving maintenance trend. The most recent test on August 19, 2025 at 89,743 miles passed with no recorded defects, indicating that previous mechanical and cosmetic issues have been addressed. This follows a clean result in 2023, suggesting that the vehicle has been well-maintained following a period of minor reactive repairs in earlier years. At 21 years old, the recorded mileage of 89,743 miles is significantly low, averaging approximately 4,273 miles per year. The data shows very consistent low usage patterns between 2022 and 2025, with only 2,144 miles covered in the three years between the 2022 and 2025 tests. While this reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it increases the likelihood of material degradation in rubber-based parts due to long periods of inactivity or low use. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension geometry and rubber components. The September 2024 test at 88,618 miles flagged worn front suspension arm bushes on both sides, and while this was resolved by the following year, these components are prone to cracking as they age regardless of mileage. The 2022 failure regarding perishing and cracking tyres across multiple corners confirms that the low mileage has not prevented age-related dry rot. Inspect the tyre sidewalls for further fractures and check the chassis for structural corrosion, as these are the primary risks for a vehicle of this age and profile.
