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

The vehicle is currently road‑worthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 27 November 2025 at 129,890 miles, and the record shows no recurring defects; the pattern of alternating pass/fail entries without recorded failures suggests a stable maintenance trend rather than a deterioration. At 129,890 miles for a 2013 model the average annual mileage works out to just under 10,000 mi, which sits comfortably within normal UK usage. The mileage progression from 115,953 mi in December 2023 to 123,204 mi in November 2024 and then to 129,890 mi in November 2025 reflects a steady, moderate increase of roughly 7,000–8,000 mi per year, with no sudden spikes that would indicate periods of intensive use or neglect. Although the MOT entries list both a pass and a fail on the same dates in 2024 and 2025, no specific defects were recorded, implying that any failure was likely administrative or related to paperwork rather than mechanical. Consequently, a prospective buyer should still conduct a thorough visual and functional inspection: check the condition of the brake discs and pads for wear, verify that the suspension bushes and coil springs show no signs of leakage or excessive play, and examine the body for any hidden corrosion, particularly around wheel arches and under‑carriage. Confirm that all lights, exhaust emissions, and steering components operate within normal parameters, as these are the areas most commonly flagged in MOT assessments despite the clean record.
