The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend indicates a shift towards developing mechanical wear and corrosion. While the most recent test in August 2025 at 67,620 miles passed, it flagged corroded front brake pipes and thinning offside rear brake pads. This represents a departure from the clean records seen in 2022 and 2023, suggesting that components are now reaching their service limits. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use urban vehicle, averaging approximately 6,100 miles per year. There is a notable gap of six months between the February 2022 and August 2022 tests, during which the car covered 3,518 miles. Since then, the usage has remained steady, with roughly 8,000 miles covered annually. This low mileage often explains the premature aging of rubber components, such as the suspension bushes identified in July 2024, as materials degrade over time regardless of mileage physical stress. A physical inspection must focus on the braking system and suspension to ensure the corrosion noted on the nearside and offside front brake pipes has been properly addressed rather than merely masked. The tester previously identified worn suspension arm bushes at 59,309 miles, so the buyer should check for play or audible knocks during a test drive which would indicate these bushes have deteriorated further. Given the thin brake pads reported in 2025, a full measurement of the remaining pad life and discs is necessary to prevent damage to the rotors.
