Mechanical Assessment
This vehicle demonstrates a stable and highly positive roadworthiness trend. The most recent test on 28 November 2025 at 136,376 miles passed with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean MOT certificates dating back to November 2021, suggesting a period of diligent maintenance or a recent comprehensive refresh of wear items. The mileage accumulation is consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging roughly 8,524 miles per year. The record shows steady usage, with a notable increase between December 2016 and December 2017 where the odometer rose from 78,471 to 79,853 miles, and a more significant jump between 2014 and 2015. There are no suspicious mileage drops or unexplained gaps in the testing history that would suggest periods of prolonged standing or odometer tampering. Earlier records indicate a history of neglecting basic consumables. In December 2013 at 42,203 miles, the tester flagged thin rear brake pads and worn front tyres. Similar tyre wear issues recurred in December 2015 and again in November 2020 at 102,850 miles. These recurring advisories for tyre edge wear often point to suboptimal wheel alignment or worn suspension bushes, which can accelerate tyre degradation. A buyer should physically inspect the suspension components and wheel alignment to ensure the previous tyre wear issues were permanently resolved. While the recent clean sheets are encouraging, the 2013 and 2014 entries mentioned under-trays and engine covers obscuring components. An inspector should verify the current state of the chassis and underside for corrosion, as these covers may have previously hidden structural degradation from the tester's view.
