Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2025‑11‑10 MOT at 113,062 miles recorded a pass with no defects, confirming that the vehicle currently satisfies DVSA roadworthiness criteria and that the maintenance record shows a stable, non‑declining condition. The mileage progression from the 2023‑09‑15 tests (104,954 miles) to the 2025‑11‑10 test (113,062 miles) reflects an average annual increase of roughly 4,100 miles, consistent with the typical 8,700‑mile‑per‑year usage for a 13‑year‑old Leaf and indicates no large periods of standing or unusually rapid accumulation. A buyer should therefore concentrate on the mechanical components that have historically shown vulnerability: the front and rear suspension bushes and coil springs, the condition of the brake discs and calipers, and any evidence of structural rust on the chassis or wheel arches. Particular attention to the integrity of the binding calipers and the state of the brake discs is advisable, given the repeated testing at similar mileage levels. Although the MOT history lists no recorded defects, the two 2023‑09‑15 outcomes (one pass, one fail) suggest that minor wear items such as tyre tread depth, wiper blade condition, and exhaust emissions may have been borderline at that time; a physical inspection should verify these consumables and confirm the absence of hidden corrosion or binding components.
