Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

This vehicle presents an exceptionally stable roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 9 June 2025 at 77,660 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to March 2021, suggesting a high standard of preventative maintenance and a lack of recurring mechanical failures. The mileage accumulation is consistent with the age of the car, averaging roughly 7,766 miles per year. A notable jump in usage occurred between the March 2021 test at 63,186 miles and the March 2022 test at 74,147 miles, where the vehicle covered nearly 11,000 miles in a single year. Since then, the annual mileage has decreased and stabilised, with only 720 miles added between April 2024 and June 2025. The absence of any advisories regarding brake disc thickness, tyre tread, or suspension bush wear over five years is unusual for a vehicle of this age and mileage. While the record is clean, a buyer should still verify the condition of the high-voltage battery health and the cooling system, as these are critical components not fully scrutinised during a standard MOT. Physical inspection should focus on the chassis and body panels for any signs of corrosion or previous repair, as the MOT history provides no data on structural integrity beyond the basic pass requirements. Checking the service history for oil changes and filter replacements will confirm if the mechanical care matches the clean DVSA record.
