2013 Scion XD 1.8L Petrol · AY62 FDX

The vehicle appears mechanically stable based on the available MOT data, though the record is significantly outdated. The most recent test on 12 September 2023 resulted in a pass at 110,457 miles. There are no recorded defects or advisories across the entire history provided, which suggests a vehicle that has consistently met minimum legal standards without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage pattern is consistent with the age of the car, averaging roughly 8,497 miles per year. The distance increased by 8,625 miles between the September 2021 test at 93,158 miles and the September 2022 test at 101,833 miles. However, the car has remained stationary at 110,457 miles since the September 2023 test. This indicates the vehicle has not been driven for nearly three years, which introduces risks associated with long-term storage. A buyer must prioritize a physical inspection of components that degrade during periods of inactivity. Seals can perish and fluids can settle or contaminate, so checking for oil leaks and coolant degradation is essential. The brakes should be inspected for binding calipers or surface corrosion on the discs, as lack of use often leads to seized components. Tyres must be checked for flat spots and sidewall cracking, regardless of the tread depth. Because the MOT record is nearly three years old, the current roadworthiness is unverified. A fresh inspection is required to identify any new suspension wear or structural corrosion that has developed while the vehicle sat idle.
