2008 Daihatsu Sirion 1.3L Petrol · SK58 AHC

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test, conducted on 6 December 2021 at 83,470 miles, recorded no defects or advisories, indicating that the car met all minimum standards up to that point. This streak of clean results across five consecutive annual tests suggests the previous owners maintained the mechanical and structural components effectively without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage pattern is notably low for an eighteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,600 miles per year. Between October 2017 at 68,654 miles and December 2021 at 83,470 miles, the car covered only 14,816 miles. This low usage typically implies less wear on the drivetrain and engine-related components. However, the significant gap since the last recorded test in late 2021 means the vehicle's current roadworthiness is unverified and the mechanical state over the last four years remains unknown from DVSA data. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the risks associated with low-mileage, older vehicles. While the record shows no structural corrosion, rubber components such as suspension bushes, split boots, and tyre sidewalls perish and crack over time regardless of distance driven. Check the brakes for pitting or seized calipers, which often occur when a car sits stationary for long periods. Given the time elapsed since the last MOT, a thorough fluid check is essential to ensure no leaks or degradation of engine oils has occurred since the 2021 inspection.
