Mechanical Assessment
The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a successful MOT test on 2 July 2026 at 21,521 miles. While the car initially failed on that same day due to a defective windscreen wiper failing to clear the glass, the issue was rectified immediately to secure a clean pass. The overall maintenance trend appears stable, as there are no recurring mechanical, structural, or safety-related defects recorded across the three-year history provided. The mileage profile is notably low for a four-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,380 miles per year. There is a significant gap in records between the 9 May 2025 test at 10,111 miles and the 11 July 2025 test at 10,862 miles, indicating the car sat stationary for over a year. Since then, the vehicle has covered over 10,000 miles in a single year, suggesting a recent increase in usage frequency. The low total mileage generally implies that drivetrain and suspension components have undergone less wear than high-mileage examples. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection to check for signs of rubber components degrading, such as bushes and tyres, which can perish or crack during long periods of standing stationary. Because the MOT history shows no issues with brake calipers or structural corrosion, the focus should remain on ensuring fluid levels and battery health have been maintained despite the intermittent use. Given the recent wiper failure, verifying the condition of the wiper motor and blade assembly is a necessary step to ensure the fault was merely a worn consumable rather than a deeper electrical issue.
