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 has a definitive roadworthiness status of non-roadworthy, with a clear deterioration trend that is worsening rather than stable or improving. The most recent test on 2026-06-17 was conducted at 175,985 miles on a 2012 RENAULT MASTER, a vehicle that should have passed in 2025. This test failed on 2025-12-08, indicating that the vehicle has been in continuous, unbroken service without any major repairs or maintenance shifts. The maintenance history reveals a consistent failure pattern across four distinct MOT tests between 2023 and 2025, where the vehicle failed on the same components repeatedly, confirming that the mechanical condition has not been corrected and has remained in a degraded state. The mileage accumulation is exceptionally high for a 14-year-old car, averaging approximately 12,570 miles per year. This rapid growth suggests that the owner has maintained the vehicle for an extended period, resulting in significant wear on the drivetrain and suspension components. The data points to a pattern where the vehicle has accumulated wear on brake discs, suspension bushings, and brake lines without any corresponding maintenance or replacement of these parts, which is a critical indicator that the vehicle is not being cared for properly. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the vehicle's mechanical systems to verify the presence of corrosion, binding calipers, and structural damage. The history indicates that the front brake pipes and master cylinders are corroded and covered in grease, which can lead to a loss of braking efficiency and potential failure. Similarly, the rear brake pipes, suspension arms, and shock absorbers show signs of fluid leaks and excessive wear, suggesting that the internal components are prone to failure. A responsible buyer must also check the registration plates and indicators, as the records show multiple instances of inoperative lights and a failed rear registration plate lamp, which could indicate a lack of attention to the electrical systems or a need for immediate repair.
