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 of passing tests following an initial failure in February 2023. The most recent test on 17 March 2026 resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows two consecutive clean passes in March 2025 and March 2024, indicating that the vehicle has met minimum regulatory standards for the last three consecutive years without any recorded advisories or mechanical failures. The recorded mileage of 101,568 miles is consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging approximately 10,157 miles per year. The MOT records do not show any significant gaps in testing or evidence of rapid mileage accumulation between the annual inspections. The data provided is relatively sparse regarding specific mileage increments at each test date, but the current total aligns with typical usage patterns for a 2016 model. While the recent records are clean, the failure recorded on 27 February 2023 suggests a previous mechanical or safety issue that required rectification to achieve a pass. A prospective buyer should conduct a physical inspection of common wear items that often appear as advisories on vehicles of this age and mileage, specifically checking the condition of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs. Examining the underside for signs of corrosion and checking the integrity of the exhaust system is also advisable, as these components are subject to environmental degradation over a ten-year period. buying_score: 75 risk_level: Low.
