Mechanical Assessment
The vehicle is presently roadworthy, having passed the 19 June 2026 MOT at 85,187 miles. The preceding failure on 16 June 2026 – a fractured off‑side rear coil spring and front tyre tread below 1.6 mm – was remedied, showing an improving trend after the corrective work. Mileage averages roughly 5,300 miles per year over sixteen years, well below typical usage for a 2010 model. The odometer rose from 78,264 miles on 28 June 2024 to 81,592 miles on 19 June 2025, then to 85,154 miles on 16 June 2026, indicating steady, modest accumulation with no sudden spikes or gaps in the record. A prospective buyer should verify that the off‑side rear coil spring has been replaced with a component matching OEM specifications and that the mounting points show no corrosion or cracked suspension bushes. Inspect the off‑side front tyre for adequate tread depth and uniform wear, and confirm that the off‑side rear tyre, previously reported with a structural tear, has been replaced or repaired without residual sidewall damage. While the MOT record shows no brake or structural advisories, a visual check of brake discs, calipers, and overall chassis rust will ensure no hidden defects remain.
