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's MOT history shows a stable trend in recent years, with the most recent test on 6 September 2025 resulting in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a pass in the 9 September 2024 test. A failure occurred on 3 September 2024, though the specific mechanical reason for this failure was not documented in the provided record. The previous tests in August 2023 and July 2022 also resulted in passes without advisories or defects. The recorded mileage of 45,093 miles for a 2009 vehicle indicates a low annual usage pattern of approximately 2,653 miles per year. While the MOT records provide a consistent annual testing interval, the low mileage suggests the vehicle has spent significant periods stationary or has been used only for very short journeys. This pattern can lead to specific issues such as perished rubber components or seized brake calipers despite the lack of recorded failures. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection focusing on components that often degrade during periods of inactivity. Given the low mileage, I recommend checking the condition of suspension bushes, coil springs, and tyre sidewalls for age-related cracking or perishing. It is also necessary to inspect the brake discs and pads for surface corrosion or uneven wear, as well as checking the exhaust system for structural integrity and signs of corrosion that may not have triggered an advisory in the recent clean records. buying_score: 72 risk_level: Low.
