The maintenance trend over the past four years is stable – each annual test from 2022‑07‑25 through 2025‑07‑30 returned a pass and no recorded faults, indicating consistent upkeep. Mileage accumulation shows a low rate for a vehicle of this age. Between 2022‑07‑25 and 2025‑07‑30 the total increase is only 10,327 miles, averaging roughly 2,700 miles per year. The annual mileage rise has actually tapered, from about 4,240 miles between 2022 and 2023 to 2,519 miles in the last year, suggesting lighter use or extended periods of storage. The MOT record is clean, providing a clear, defect‑free data set. A buyer should inspect the consumables and wear items that are not captured by MOT advisories. Check tyre tread depth and even wear, examine brake discs and pads for glazing or uneven wear, and assess suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking or excessive play. Look for rust and corrosion on the chassis, frame rails, and exhaust mounting points, as long‑term storage can promote localized corrosion. Verify steering column and tie‑rod condition, test the exhaust for leaks or excessive noise, and ensure the battery and electrical connections are free of sulphation. The absence of recorded faults does not guarantee that these components are beyond normal wear, so a hands‑on inspection is essential before purchase.
