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 is currently roadworthy following a clean MOT pass in August 2025 at 58,227 miles. The maintenance trend shows signs of reactive repair rather than proactive prevention, following immediate failures. While the August 2025 test initially failed due to a fractured offside rear coil spring and an ineffective front windscreen wiper, these issues were rectified to achieve the subsequent pass. This indicates the owner addresses specific safety-critical faults once flagged by the tester. The mileage profile is low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,800 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage patterns between July 2024 at 47,347 miles and August 2025 at 58,227 miles, representing an interval of nearly 11,000 miles. This low annual mileage suggests less mechanical wear on the engine and drivetrain, though it can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber-based components and brake corrosion if the vehicle sits for long periods. A buyer should perform a close inspection of the suspension geometry, specifically checking the offside rear coil spring to ensure the replacement was fitted correctly and no other components are perished. The previous failure in 2023 at 41,550 miles regarding an inoperative Malfunction Indicator Light warrants a diagnostic tool scan to ensure no hidden fault codes remain in the engine management system. Given the low mileage, verify the brake discs for surface pitting or seized calipers, as these are common issues on vehicles that are not driven frequently.
