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 presents a currently roadworthy status following the December 2025 MOT pass at 73,198 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the three most recent annual tests. The December 2025 record shows a pass and a same-day fail with no defects logged, a pattern repeated in December 2024 when the car failed then passed the next day at 63,677 miles. These zero-defect failure entries suggest administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical faults, and no advisories or defects appear anywhere in the supplied history. Annual mileage sits at roughly 5,228 miles against a 14-year-old chassis, a low-use profile confirmed by the recorded distances. The car ran 56,657 miles at the December 2023 test, rose to 63,677 by December 2024, and reached 73,198 by December 2025, an even spread of about 7,000 miles per year across those two intervals. No long standing gaps or sudden accumulation show in the data, and the clean record with no corrosion, brake, suspension, or emission flags points to light, consistent use with no deferred upkeep visible in the official entries. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and hidden corrosion, as the MOT record logs no underside or chassis assessment detail beyond the pass outcome. Suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs warrant hands-on checks for age-related fatigue not yet flagged by testers. The repeated same-day fail-pass cycles with no defects recorded imply the previous owner addressed any test-centre queries promptly, but verifying the front-to-rear tyre condition and binding calipers in person remains sensible on a low-mileage 2012 hatch.
