Mechanical Assessment

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

The vehicle presents a clean MOT trajectory with the most recent test on 23 July 2025 at 14,169 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. Maintenance trend appears stable, showing no advisories or mechanical faults across the five recorded tests. The anomalous failure logged on 15 July 2024 at 14,020 miles listed no defects, followed by a pass on the same date, indicating an administrative anomaly rather than a mechanical concern. The campervan has covered just 14,169 miles in roughly fourteen years, averaging about 1,012 miles per year. Records show modest annual increments: 11,297 miles in July 2022, 13,519 by June 2023, and 14,020 by July 2024, before reaching 14,169 in July 2025. Such low accumulation suggests extended periods of storage. The sparse but consistent history reveals no rapid mileage jumps or neglected gaps beyond the expected low-use pattern. No recurring faults or structural issues appear in the DVSA data, so previous owners likely kept basic upkeep current despite minimal use. The identical-day fail and pass in July 2024 with zero defects implies clerical duplication rather than skipped maintenance. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of age-sensitive components not always flagged by MOT. Check suspension bushes and coil springs for perishing from prolonged standing. Examine brake discs and calipers for corrosion or binding after low mileage. Assess underside structural integrity for rust, and scrutinise tyre sidewalls for cracking despite adequate tread. The clean record supports roadworthiness, but low-use classics demand hands-on verification.
