AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle is currently overdue for an MOT test, as the last certificate expired in December 2025. The maintenance trend is worsening, with the December 2024 test at 171,347 miles recording a significant volume of advisories. The tester flagged an oil leak, an exhaust leak, a loose fuel cooler, and play in the offside track rod end. Most concerning is the continued presence of corroded brake pipes and worn offside front brake discs, both of which have appeared consistently on records since 2021. The mileage is typical for a nineteen year old vehicle, averaging roughly 9,018 miles per year. Usage has remained relatively steady, though there was a notable increase in activity between September 2020 and September 2021, where the odometer rose from 137,642 to 148,439 miles. The vehicle has not recorded any new mileage since the December 2024 test, suggesting it may have been stationary for several months. A buyer must prioritise a thorough inspection of the braking system and chassis. The record shows a chronic failure to address corroded brake pipes, which have been flagged in almost every test since 2016. The offside front brake disc has been noted as pitted or scored since December 2023 without being replaced. These recurring issues, combined with the December 2024 report of three tyres worn to the legal limit or perished, indicate a pattern of reactive rather than preventative maintenance. Further attention is required for the suspension and engine seals. The vehicle has a history of failing on coil springs and track rod ends, and the persistent oil leak mentioned since 2019 suggests an unresolved gasket or seal failure. The presence of a loose fuel cooler and an exhaust leak in the most recent test further confirms that basic mechanical upkeep has been neglected in the final years of the vehicle's recorded history.
