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 roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 20 October 2025 at 88,963 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend appears stable following a period of inconsistency. While the vehicle failed tests in both 2022 and 2023, the subsequent clean passes indicate that the previous owner addressed the necessary faults to bring the van back to minimum legal standards. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 25-year-old commercial, averaging approximately 3,559 miles per year. The data shows significant periods of inactivity, particularly between August 2023 and October 2025 where the vehicle covered only 116 miles over two years. The narrow gap between July 2022 and August 2023 saw only 21 miles recorded. This usage pattern suggests long periods of standing, which often leads to the degradation of rubber components, perished seals, and internal engine corrosion that does not necessarily manifest in high mileage. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the structural integrity and chassis underside, as low-mileage vehicles are prone to surface rust and seized components from lack. The failures in 2022 and 2023 occurred within very short intervals of each other, suggesting specific mechanical components or emissionsrelated items required immediate attention. Pay close focus to the brake calipers, suspension bushes, and tyre condition, as these elements frequently suffer from age-related decay regardless of the low odometer reading.
