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

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT following a pass on 17 October 2025 at 127,366 miles. The overall maintenance trend appears exceptionally stable, as the record shows a consistent history of passes with no recorded defects since 2022. A failure on 2 October 2025 is noted, though the lack of specific defect data for that entry suggests a minor administrative or quick-fix issue that was resolved within fifteen days. The mileage is high for a ten year old vehicle, averaging roughly 12,737 miles per year. There was a significant increase in usage between November 2022 and November 2023, where the odometer jumped from 82,466 to 104,985 miles. This indicates a period of heavy motorway or commuter use. The accumulation has remained steady since then, with 8,469 miles added between October 2024 and October 2025. While the MOT history is remarkably clean, the high mileage necessitates a physical inspection of high-wear components. A buyer should check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these typically degrade under the stress of 127,000 miles. The brake discs and pads should be measured for remaining thickness to ensure they are not nearing their wear limits. Attention should also be paid to the drivetrain and engine mounts. High-mileage A-Class models can develop vibration issues or fluid leaks that do not always trigger an MOT failure but affect long-term reliability. Checking for underside corrosion, particularly on the subframes, will confirm if the vehicle has been subject to harsh winter road salt during its high-mileage years.
