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 of passing inspections without recorded defects over the last five years. The most recent test on 3 December 2025 resulted in a pass with no advisories or failures noted. This pattern of clean certificates from 2021 through to late 2025 indicates that no mechanical or structural issues have been flagged by the tester during these specific annual inspections. The recorded mileage of 87,327 miles suggests an average annual usage of approximately 8,733 miles. This level of use is consistent with the vehicle's age. The MOT records show a steady progression of testing each year in November or December, indicating regular annual inspections without significant gaps in the testing schedule. Because the MOT history contains no recorded failures or advisories regarding suspension bushes, brake discs, or tyre tread, the records do not highlight any specific recurring mechanical faults. A physical inspection should still focus on common wear items that may not trigger an MOT advisory, such as the condition of the high-voltage battery components, cooling systems, and the integrity of the chassis. Buying Score: 85 Risk Level: Low.
