The most recent MOT on 24 February 2026 at 21,642 miles recorded a pass, but the tester noted a slightly damaged and cracking off‑side rear tyre and a windscreen blemish that does not impair the driver’s view. These advisories do not constitute a failure, so the car remains roadworthy, yet the tyre issue indicates a modest deterioration compared with the clean record of earlier tests. Mileage has risen from 6,299 miles in March 2024 to 14,283 miles in March 2025, then to 21,642 miles in February 2026. The annual increments of roughly 8,000 miles in the last two years exceed the average of about 4,300 miles per year suggested by the overall five‑year total. The pattern suggests a period of relatively light use followed by a more intensive driving phase, which may have accelerated wear on consumables. A prospective buyer should give the off‑side rear tyre a thorough visual and tactile inspection, probing for surface cracks, tread loss, or sidewall bulges that could develop into a failure. The windscreen should be examined for any propagation of the existing damage, especially around the edges. Although no brake or suspension faults appear in the MOT history, the recent mileage increase warrants a check of brake disc thickness, caliper operation, and suspension bushings for any signs of binding or premature wear. A cursory assessment for corrosion on the chassis and under‑body will confirm that the higher‑use period has not introduced structural concerns.
