2008 Daihatsu Sirion 1.0L Petrol · AV58 AFX

Currently roadworthy, the Daihatsu Sirion passed its most recent MOT on 20 January 2026 at 88,071 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the available history. On that same date the vehicle first failed then passed at identical mileage and with no faults listed, indicating an administrative re-test rather than a mechanical defect. Prior tests in January 2023, 2024 and 2025 also returned passes with zero advisories, showing consistent compliance with roadworthiness standards. Mileage accumulation sits low for an eighteen-year-old car. The January 2023 test at 76,004 miles preceded a rise to 80,582 miles by 23 January 2024, then 85,399 miles on 21 January 2025, and finally 88,071 miles on 20 January 2026. Annual distances ran at roughly 4,500, 4,800 and 2,700 miles respectively. Such light use implies short journeys or extended storage periods. The sparse five-entry record carries no flagged wear items, leaving consumable replacement intervals undocumented. A buyer should still inspect typical age-related components that MOT passes alone may not expose. The tester noted no corrosion or structural integrity concerns, yet a 2008 chassis can conceal rust in sills and subframes. Suspension bushes and coil springs demand visual checks for cracking after eighteen years of service. Brake discs and calipers require assessment for binding or pitting, a known risk on low-mileage vehicles left standing. Previous owners cleared the annual test each winter without advisory warnings on tyres, wiper blades or exhaust emissions. That pattern suggests either disciplined upkeep or a lenient testing regime. Prospective purchaser must seek independent confirmation of fluid changes and timing belt condition, as the DVSA record evidences only pass-fail outcomes rather than preventative mechanical care.
