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 passed its most recent MOT on 22 May 2026, but only after failing three days prior. The failure was due to a combination of worn tyres and thin rear brake pads. There is a recurring pattern of tyre wear and neglect. Front tyre wear was flagged as an advisory in 2023, and by 2026, the nearside front was worn to the legal limit while the offside rear had a severe cut reaching the ply or cords. This indicates a worsening trend in maintenance, moving from minor advisories to safety-critical failures. Brake wear has also emerged as a recent concern. The rear brake pads contributed to the May 2026 failure and remain listed as an advisory on the passing certificate, meaning they will require replacement in the near future. The recorded mileage of 61,160 miles is typical for a nine-year-old vehicle. This suggests the car has been used regularly, which generally avoids the risks associated with long-term standing, though it means consumables are naturally reaching the end of their service life. A buyer should first inspect the condition and brand of all four tyres to ensure the recent failures were corrected with quality replacements.
