2017 Elddis Encore 2.2L Diesel · NK17 AXB

The 2026‑05‑26 MOT at 35,645 miles passed with no defects, confirming current roadworthiness and indicating a positive trend after earlier failures in 2025 and 2023. At nine years old the vehicle records 35,645 miles, averaging 3,961 miles per year, which is low for its age and suggests periods of limited use; mileage gaps include a stretch from 2020‑07‑10 (9,678 miles) to 2021‑06‑24 (11,465 miles) with only 1,787 miles covered, and a sharp rise from 2022‑09‑07 (13,624 miles) to 2023‑09‑12 (27,759 miles) adding over 14,000 miles in one year. Recurring faults such as the 2025‑06‑04 brake efficiency failure and the 2025‑06‑04 and 2023‑09‑12 direction‑indicator defects point to possible wiring or component wear, while the 2023‑09‑12 tyre tread shortfall indicates neglect of consumable maintenance; these patterns imply that previous owners may have deferred brake and lighting service. A buyer should therefore inspect suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, examine brake discs and calipers for binding or corrosion, verify structural integrity for rust around the wheel arches and chassis, confirm exhaust emissions compliance, test the direction indicators and brake performance, and assess tyre condition and tread depth.
