The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent inspection in September 2025 with 59,051 miles. The maintenance trend appears largely stable, following four consecutive years of clean passes between 2021 and 2024. However, the most recent advisory regarding front tyres worn close to the legal limit and showing excessive inner wear on both sides indicates a developing issue with alignment or suspension geometry that has not yet been addressed. The mileage profile is significantly low for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,900 miles per annum. The data shows a consistent and slow progression of use, moving from 34,995 miles in 2021 to 59,051 miles in late 2025. This low annual mileage suggests the mechanical components of the drivetrain and engine have faced limited stress, though low-mileage vehicles can sometimes suffer from degradation of rubber-based components or brake system seizing if the car has sat stationary for extended periods. A buyer must physically inspect the front suspension components to identify the cause of the uneven tyre wear noted last year. This fault often points to worn wishbone bushes, tie rod ends, or incorrect camber settings which will rapidly consume new rubber. Given the age of the car and the low mileage, inspection should also check for corrosion on the brake discs and potential cracking in tyre sidewalls, as infrequent use often leads to surface pitting and material failure despite a clean MOT record.
