2016 Great Wall Steed 2.0L Diesel · AF66 AAX

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on a history of clean passes. The most recent inspection conducted in January 2024 at 72,678 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This suggests that the previous owners maintained the vehicle to a standard that meets minimum legal safety requirements without triggering immediate mechanical failures or structural concerns during the last five testing cycles. The mileage pattern is consistent with a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,200 miles per year. Between January 2020 and January 2024, the vehicle covered 32,701 miles, indicating steady and predictable use. A slight increase in usage occurred between January 2022 and December 2022, where the car clocked 9,436 miles in nearly eleven months, but the rate returned to more normal levels thereafter. The low overall mileage generally reduces the expected wear on drivetrain components and engine internals compared to high-mileage examples of the same age. Since the MOT record shows no recurring advisories for corrosion, leaks, or brake components, a physical inspection should focus on common vulnerabilities specific to the Great Wall Steed. Given the age and the relatively low mileage, a buyer should inspect the chassis for developing structural rust that may not have yet reached the threshold of an MOT failure. Also verify the condition of the rubber suspension bushes and arm joints, as these can perish over time regardless of the mileage recorded.
