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 failed its MOT on 2025-08-22 due to issues with the registration plate lamp and severely worn front tyres, indicating ongoing concerns with consumables and lighting. However, it passed on the same day after addressing these issues, suggesting a generally stable maintenance trend with recent attention to critical components. The vehicle has accumulated approximately 7,426 miles per year, which is typical for its age. Notably, there is a significant gap between the 2023-07-26 test at 35,307 miles and the 2024-07-23 test at 49,006 miles, indicating a period of potentially reduced usage or delayed maintenance. The subsequent tests in 2024 and 2025 show consistent issues with brake pads and discs, particularly the rear brakes, which require close inspection. A buyer should focus on the condition of the front and rear brake pads and discs, given the repeated failures related to these components. Additionally, the front tyres should be thoroughly examined for wear and damage, as they were close to failing multiple times. The registration plate lamp issue highlights the importance of checking all lighting systems, as this can affect visibility and safety. Overall, the vehicle appears to have been maintained adequately, but potential areas of concern remain, especially regarding the braking system and tyre condition.
